MORNING SERVICE. 

HOW goodly are thy tents, Jacob! thy tabernacles, 
Israel ! And in the greatness of thy benevolence, will I 
enter thine house; in reverence of thee will I bow down 
towards the temple of thine holiness. O Lord ! I have loved 
the habitation of thine house, and the dwelling-place of thy 
glory. I therefore will worship, bow down, and bend the 
knee before the Lord my Maker. And I will offer my prayer 
unto thee, Lord ! in an acceptable time : in thine abund- 
ant mercy, God! answer me in the truth of thy salvation. 

T have called upon thee, for thou wilt answer me. God! 
incline thine ear unto me, and hear my speech. I shall be- 
hold thy face in righteousness ; I shall be satisfied, when I 
awaken with the similitude of thy glory. For, in thee, I 
trusted^ Lord ! I said thou art my God ! hear the voice 
of my supplications, when I lift up my hands towards thine 
holy oracle. I cried unto thee, Lord ! my God, and thou 
hast healed me : I therefore will call unto thee, O Lord ! 
and unto the Lord, will I make supplication. O cause thy 
face to shine upon thy servant ; and save me with thy ten- 
der mercy. For unto thee, Lord! do I hope; thou wilt 
answer me, Lord ! my God : Hear my prayer, Lord ! 
and give ear unto my cry : be not silent to my tears. 
Hear, O Lord ! and be gracious unto me : Lord be thou 
my help. 

A Song of Degrees of David. — I rejoiced when they 
said unto me, let us go into the house of the Lord. I re- 
joice at thy word, as one who findeth great spoil. Hearken 
unto the voice of my cry, my King ! and my God ! for unto

5 MORNING SERVICE 

thee I will pray 7^ In the morning, Lord ! thou wilt hear 
my voice : in the morning will I address my prayer unto 
thee : and will hope. I call upon thee, because thou hast 
answered me ; incline thine ear unto me, God ! and hear 
my prayer. My feet stand in the strait path : in the as- 
sembly will I praise the Lord. 

Let the living God be magnified and praised ; he exists, 
and there is no period to his existence. 

He is unity, and there is no unity like unto his unity ; he 
is concealed, yea, also there is no end to his unity. 

He hath no bodily likeness, nor is he corporeal ; his holi- 
ness is incomputable. 

He was the antecedent to every thing which was created, 
he is the first, and there is no beginning to his beginning. 

Behold, he is the Lord of the Universe, to all that is form- 
ed; showing his magnificence and his kingdom. 

The inspiration of his prophecy he gave unto his peculiar 
and glorified people. 

Yet never hath there arisen in Israel a prophet like unto 
Moses, who beheld the similitude of his glory. 

A law of truth hath the Almighty given to his people, by 
the hand of our prophet, the faithful of his house. 

The Almighty will never change nor alter his law, for 
evermore there is none but his. 

He observeth and knoweth all our secrets, he beholdeth 
the end of every thing before it is begun. 

He rewardeth every Saint according to his work, he yield- 
eth to the wicked evil according to his wickedness. 

He will send at the end of days our anointed, to redeem 
those, who at that end hope for his salvation. 

The Almighty will quicken the death, with the multitude 
of his mercy. Blessed bo his name and his praise, for ever 
and ever.

' Universal Lord ! who the scepter swayM, 

Ere creation's first wond'rous form was framed : 
When by his will divine, all things were made, 

Then — King, Almighty was his name proclaimed! 
When all shall cease, and this world's system o'er, 

Then he tremendously alone will reign : 
Who was, who is, and will evermore 

In most refulgent glory still remain 
Sole God ! unequalPd and beyond compare : 

Without division or associate ; 
Without commencing date or final year — 

Omnipotence is his, and regal state. 
He is my God, my living Redeemer, 

My shelt'ring rock in a distressed hour ; 
My refuge, my standard, and protector, 

My lot's disposer, when I seek his power 
Into his hands my spirit I consign, 

Whilst wrapt in sleep, and when again I wake : 
And with my spirit my body I resign — 

The Lord's with me, no fears my soul shall shake. 
Blessed art thou, Lord ! our God, King of the Universe, 
who hath sanctified us with thy commandments, and com- 
manded us to cleanse our hands. 

Blessed art thou, O Lord ! oar God, King of the Universe, 
who hath formed man in wisdom ; and created in him pipes, 
tubes, veins and arteries. It is certain, and known before 
the throne of thy glory, that if but one of them was opened, 
or stopped, it would be impossible for any to exist, or abide 
before thee. Blessed art thou, O Lord! who healeth all 
flesh, and worketh wonderfully. 

Blessed art thou, Lord ! our God, King of the Universe, 
who hath sanctified us with his commandments, and com- 
manded us to study the words of the law.

9 MORNING SERVICE 

Lord ! our God ! we beseech thee to make the words of 
thy law pleasant in our mouths, and in the mouths of thy 
people, the house of Israel; so that we, our offspring, and 
the offspring of thy people, the house of Israel, may all know 
thy name, and study thy law for its sake. Blessed art thou, 
O Lord ! who teacheth the law to his people Israel. 

Blessed art thou, O Lord ! our God, King of the Universe, 
who hath chosen us from all nations, and hath given us his 
law. Blessed art thou, Lord ! the giver of the law. 

The Lord bless and preserve thee ! the Lord make his face 
shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee ; the Lord lift 
up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace. These 
following are commandments, which are without limitation, 
viz, the corners of thejield, the first ripe fruits, and the 
appearance of every male, gracious bestowings, and the at- 
tentive study of the law. These are commandments, which, 
when man performs, he enjoys the interest of in this world, 
and the principal is remaining for the world to come, as fol- 
lowing : honoring father and mother, gracious bestowings, 
early attendance to the college morning and evening, hospi- 
tality to strangers, visiting the sick, promoting of marriage, 
conducting the dead to their graves, to be devot in prayers, 
and making friendship between parties ; but the study of 
the law of God is equivalent to them all. 

My God ! the soul, Avhijch thou hast given me is pure ; thou 
hast created, formed, and breathed it into me : thou dost 
also carefully guard it within me : wilt hereafter take it from 
me, and restore it unto me in futurity. All the while that 
the soul continues within me, I acknowledge before thee, 
Lord ! mj God, and the God of my ancestors, that thou art

Blessed art thou, Lord, our God, King of the Universe ! 
who giveth strength to the weary. 

Blessed art thou, Lord, our God ! King of the Universe, 
who removeth sleep from mine eyes, and slumber from mine 
eye-lids. 

And may it be acceptable in thy presence, Lord ! our 
God, and the God of our fathers, to accustom us in thy law, 
and cause us to cleave to thy precepts, and lead us not into 
the power of sin, transgressions, iniquity, temptation, or 
contempt. Sufier not the evil imagination to have dominion 
over us : and remove far from us evil men and wicked asso- 
ciates and works ; humbling our imagination, that it may 
be subservient unto thee, grant us this and every day, 
grace, favor and mercy, in thy sight and all that behold us ; 
and grant us mercy for our good. Give us an inclination to 
good and good works. Blessed art thou, Lord! who be- 
stoweth gracious favors on his people Israel. 

May it be acceptable in thy presence, Lord ! my God, 
and the God of my fathers, to deliver me this and every day 
from hardened and impudent faces ^ from evil men, from evil 
associates, from evil neighbors, from evil occurrences, and 
from every hindrance, which is destructive ; from an op- 
pressive judge, wheter he be or not a son of the covenant. 

Man should ever fear God, as well in public as in private; 
confess and declare the truth, as it is in his heart ; let him 
rise early and pray : 

Creator of all wjorlds ! we presume not to present our sup-

plication before thee for our righteousness, but for thine 
abundant mercies. What are we? What is our life? What 
is our help ? What is our righteousness ? What is our 
goodness? What is our power? What is our might? 
What then shall we say in thy presence, Lord ! our God, 
and the God of our fathers ? are not the mightiest heroes as 
nougth before thee ? and men of renown, as though they had 
not existed? wise men, as if they were without knowledge? 
and the intelligent, as if void of understanding ! for the ma- 
jority of their actions, is emptiness; the days of their life, 
but vanity in thy presence : even the pre-eminence of man 
over the beast, is nought; for all is vanity. 

But we are thy people, the children of thy covenant ; the 
children of Abraham thy beloved, to whom thou didst swear 
unto on Mount Moriah : the seed of Isaac his only son, who 
was bound upon the altar:. the congregation of Jacob, the 
firstborn son, who from the love, wherewith thou didst love 
him, and the joy, wherewith thou didst rejoice in him, hast 
called his name Israel and Jeshurun. 

We therefore are in duty bound to give thanks unto thee ; 
to praise, glorify, bless and sanctify thee : and to offer praise 
and thanksgiving to thy name. happy are we! How 
goodly is our portion ! How pleasant is our lot ! How beau- 
tiful is our inheritance ! O happy are we, that we rise early 
in the morning and attend late in the evening and proclaim 
twice daily : 

Hear, o Israel! the Lord, our God, is one God ! 

Blessed be the name of the glory of his kingdom 

for evermore. 

Thou art the same before creation ; and thou art the same 
after creation. Thou art one in this world and in the future. 
Sanctify thy name through those, who also sanctify thy

salvation, exalt and raise on high our horn of salvation. 
Blessed art thou, Lord ! sanctifying thy name publicly. 

Thou art the Lord, our God, in heaven and on the earth : 
and in the highest heavens. Verily thou art the first and 
thou art the last, and besides thee, there is no God. 
gather together those, who hope in thee, from the four cor- 
ners of the earth ; that the whole world may know and 
acknowledge, that thou alone art God over all the kingdoms 
of the earth. Thou hast made the heavens and the earth, the 
sea* and all that is in them , and who is it among all the 
works of thy hands, either in the uppermost or nethermost 
parts, that can say unto thee, wath doest thou? Heavenly 
Father ! we beseech thee to be gracious unto us, for the sake 
of thy great name, by which we are called ; and confirm unto 
us, O Lord, our God, Avhat is written: at that time I will 
bring you again, and at the time, when I assemble you, 
surely I will appoint you for a name, and a praise among all 
the people of the earth : when I cause your captivity to re- 
turn before your eyes, said the Lord. 

And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying : command the 
children of Israel and say unto them : my ofiering and my 
bread for my sacrifices made by fire for a sweet savour unto 
me, shall ye observe to offer unto me in their due season. 
And thou shalt say unto them, this is the offering made by 
fire, which ye shall offer unto the Lord, two lambs of the 
first year without spot, day by day, for a continual burnt-

the other lamb shalt thou offer at even, and a tenth part of 
an ephah of flour for a meat-offering, mingled with a fourth

And he shall kill it on the altar northward before the Lord 
and the priests, Aaron's sons, shall sprinkle his blood about 
the altar. 

On the Sabbath say : And on the Sabbath-day, two lambs of 
the first year, without spot, and two tenth deals of flour for a 
meat-offering, mingled with oil, and the drink-offering thereof. 
This is the burnt-offering of every sabbath, beside the con- 
tinual burnt-offering, and its drink-offering. i 

On theJYew Moon say: And in the beginnings of your 
months, ye shall offer a burnt-offering unto the Lord, two

offering, and its drink-offering. 

Which are the places of sacrificing ? the holy of the holiest 
their sacrifice was towards the north : the bullock and 
goat on the day of atonement, their sacrifice w^as in the north : 

and the reception of their blood in the vessel of service in 
the north, and their blood required sprinkling over and be- 
tween the staves, the veil, and the golden altar, one gift 
neglected, interrupted the service ; the rest of their blood 
was poured at the bottom on the west-side of the outer altar ; 
if not given, it did not interrupt the service. The bullocks 
and the goats, which were burnt, their sacrifices at the north- 
side. And the reception of their blood, in the vessel of ser- 
vice at the north : and their blood required sprinkling on the 
veil, and on the golden altar : one gift omitted, interrupi;ed 
the service ; and the rest of their blood was poured at the 
bottom on the western-side of the outer altar ; if it was not 
given, it would not hinter : both were burnt in the house of 
ashes. The sin-offering of the whole congregation, and 
of particular persons, these are they : the sin-offering 
of the whole congregation, the goats, which were brought 
on the beginning of the months, and they of the festi- 
vals, their slaughter was at the north; and the reception 
of their blood was in vessels of service in the north ; 
and their blood required four gifts on the four corners. In 
which manner he went up the sloping, and turned towards 
the Sobib, and came to the south-east corner, then to the 
north-east, north-west, and from thence to the south-west ;

and they were eaten within side of the curtains, hj the males 
of the priesthood, dressed after any manner, for that day 
and night, until midnight. The burnt-offering is holy of 
holies ; her sacrifice was at the north ; the reception of her 
blood was in a serving vessel in the north ; and her blood 
required two gifts, which are four: it required flaying and 
dismembering and total consuming by fire. The peace-offer- 
ings of the whole congregation, and for trespasses, these are 
the tresspasses : the trespass of thievery ; of falsities ; of a 
betrothed servant, of Nazarite ; of lebrosy; and doubtful 
sin : their slaughter was in the north ; the reception of their 
blood was in a vessel of service at the north ; and their blood 
required two gifts, which are four; and they were eaten 
within the curtains by the males of the priesthood, dressed 
after any manner, for that day and night, until midnight. 

The thanksgiving-offering, and the ram of the Nazarite ; 
less holy, their slaughter were in all places in the outer 
court ; and their blood required two gifts, which are four ; 
and they were eaten in all the city, by all men, dressed after 
any manner, that day and night, until midnight. That, 
which the priest takes from the offerings, are like the rest, 
except that, what was separated, was eaten by the priests, 
their wives, their children and their servants. The peace- 
offering less holy, their slaughter was in any part of the 
court, and its blood required two gifts, which are four; and 
were eaten throughout the city, by all men, dressed after 
any manner, for two days and one night ; the separation of 
them was like the rest, except that, which was separated, 
was eaten by the priests, their wives, their children and 
their servants. The first-born, the tithes, and the offering 
of passover were less holy, their sacrifice might be in any 
part of the court, and their blood required one gift^^ only it

must be given towards the bottom, but there was a difference 
in the eating: the firstborn was eaten by the priest, and the 
tithe by every one : and they were eaten in all the city, 
dressed after any manner, for two days and one night. The 
passover-ofifering was not eaten but in the night, it was not 
eaten but till midnight : it was not eaten but by a certain 
number, nor was it eaten otherwise then roasted. 

Rabbi Ishmael says, that the law is to be expounded by 
thirteen rules. 1. Light and heavy; or an inference from 
minor to major ; and the reserve from major to minor. 2. A 
decision deduced from an agreement, or equality of texts. 
3. From the principal constitution contained in one verse, 
and the principal constitution deduced from two verses. 4. 
From comparion a general description with its specified par- 
ticular. 6. From a particular text followed by a general one. 
6. Precepts treated of, first in general, and then in particu- 
lar, and again in general, thou must not adjudge but accord- 
ing to that, which is similar to the particular. 7. From a 
general description, that requires a particular, or specifice 
text, to explain it; and from a particular text, that requires 
a general one. 8. Every thing, that is comprehended under 
a general description and is afterwards particularly exempted 
therefrom, in order to teach us something concerning it ; the 
exemption is not given for its sake only, but to teach the 
same of the whole general term. 9. And every thing, that 
is included in a general description, and its afterguards ex- 
cepted, to prove an argument, similar to its subject ; in tha: 
case it alleviates, but does not aggravate. 10. And every 
thing, that is included in a general description, and is after- 
wards excepted, to prove an argument not similar to its 
subject ; in such case it serves to alleviate and aggravate. 
11. And every thing, that is included in a general description

deduced from the subject itself; and a thing deduced from 
the end of the text. 13. And thus, when two texts con- 
tradict each other, we cannot determine the sense, until 
a third text is produced, which reconciles them. 

Let it be willed before thy presence, Lord ! our God, and 
the God of our fathers, that the holy temple may be rebuild 
speedily in our days and grant us our portion in thy law. 

Blessed is he, who said : and the world existed ; blessed is 
he ; blessed is the Creator of the beginning ; blesed is he, 
who sayeth and accomplisheth ; blessed is he, who decreeth 
and establisheth ; blessed is he, who hath compassion on the 
earth ; blessed is he, who hath compassion on all creatures; 
blessed is he, who compensateth good reward to those, who 
fear him ; blessed is he, who liveth for ever and existeth 
everlasting; blessed is he, who redeemeth and preserveth ; 
blessed is his name. Blessed art thou, O Lord! our God, 
King of the Universe, the Almighty merciful Father ! who 
is praised with the mouth of his people, extolled and glori- 
fied with the tongue of his saints and servants, therefore, with 
the psalms of David, thy servant, we will praise thee, 
Lord! our God, and with songs and praises we will magnify, 
praise, and extol thee ; yea, we will remember thy name 
and proclaim thee our King! our God! the only one, who 
liveth eternaly. The King, praised and glorified is his great 
name for ever. Blessed art thou, Lord! a King magnified 
with praises.

psalms unto him: talk ye of all his wondrous w^orks. Glory 
ye in his holy name ; let the heart of them rejoice, that seek 
the Lord. Seek the Lord and his strength : seek his face 
continually. Remember his marvellous works, that he hath 
done, his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth : O y(\ 
seed of Israel, his servant, ye children of Jacob, his chosen 
ones. He is the Lord our God ; his judgments are in all 
the earth. Be ye mindful always of his covenant, the world, 
which he commanded to a thousand generations ; even of 
the covenant, which he made with Abraham, and his oath 
unto Isaac, and conjfirmed the same to Jacob, for a law, and 
to Israel, for an everlasting covenant ; saying, unto thee will 
I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance, when 
ye were but a few, even a few, and strangers in it ; w^hen 
they went from nation to nation, and from one kingjdom to 
another people, he suffered no man to do them wrong : j^ea, 
he reproved kings for their sakes, saying, touch not mine 
anointed, and do my prophets no harm. Sing unto the Lord 
all the earth ; show forth from day to day his salvation. 
Declare his glory among the heathen; his marvellous works 
among all nations. For great is the Lord, and greatly to be 
praised : he is also to be feared above all gods. For all the 
gods of thy people are idols , but the Lord made the heavens. 
Glory and honor are in his presence, strength and gladness 
are in his place. Give unto the Lord, ye kindreds of the 
people, give unto the Lord glory and strength. Give unto 
the Lord the glory due unto his name, bring an offering and 
come before him ; worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness. 
Fear before him, all the earth : the world also shall be staple, 
that it be not moved. Let the heavens be glad, and let thy 
earth rejoice : and let them say among the nations, the Lord 
reigneth. Let the sea roar and the fulness thereof: let the

Lord, for he is good ; for his mercy endureth for ever. And 
say ye, save us, O God of our salvation, and gather us to- 
gether and deliver us from the heathen, that we may give 
thanks to thy holy name, and glory in thy praise. Blessed 
be the Lord God of Lsrael for ever and ever and all the people 
said : Amen, and praised the Lord. Exalt ye the Lord, our 
God, and worship at his holy hill; for the Lord, our God, is 
holy. But he being full of compassion, forgiveth iniquity 
and destroyeth not : yea, many a time turneth he his anger 
away and stirreth not up all his wrath. Withhold not thou 
thy tender mercies from me, Lord ! let thy loving kindness 
and thy truth continually preserve me. Remember, Lord! 
thy tender mercies and thy loving kindness, for they have 
been ever of old. Ascribe ye strength unto God, his ex- 
cellency is over Israel and his strength is in the heavens. 
God, thou art tremendous from thy holy places: the God of 
Israel is he, that giveth strength and power unto his people, 
blessed be God. Lord God ! tho whom vengeance belongeth, 
thou God, to whom vengeance belongeth; show thyself, lift 
up thyself, thou Judge of the earth ; render a reward to tho

upon thy people. Selah. The Lord of Hosts is with us; the 
God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah. Lord of Hosts! blessed 
is the man, that trusteth in thee. Save, Lord ! and answer 
us, King! in the day of our calling. Save thy people and 
bless thine inheritance: feed them also and lift them up for 
ever. Our soul waithet for the Lord : he is our help and our 
shield, for our heart shall rejoice in him, because we have 
trusted in his holy name. Let thy mercy, O Lord, be upon

Lord ! and grant us thy salvation. Arise for our help and 
redeem us for thy mercy's sake. I am the Lord, thy God, 
who brought thee out of the land of Egypt : open thy mouth 
wide and I will fill it. Happy is that people, that is in 
such a case: yea, happy is that people, whose God is the 
Lord; but I have trusted in thy mercy, my heart shall re- 
joice in thy salvation. I will sing unto the Lord, because 
he hath dealt bountifully with me. 

A Psalm of Thanksgiving. — Make a joyful noise unto 
the Lord, all ye lands. Serve the Lord with gladness ; come 
; before his presence with singing. Know ye, that the Lord 
he is God, it is he, that hath made us and not we ourselves : 
we are his people and the sheep of his pasture. Enter into 
his gates with thanksgiving and into his courts with praise ; 
be thankful unto him and bless his name. For the Lord is 
good, his mercy is everlasting: and his truth endureth 
throughout all generations.

night showeth knowledge. There is no speech nor language, 
were their voice is not heard ; their line is going out through 
all the earth and their words to the end of the world : in them 
hath he set a tabernacle for the sun, which is a bridgercom, 
coming out of his chamber and rejoiceth as a strong man, to 
run a race. His going forth is from the end of the heaven 
and his circuit unto the ends of it : and there is nothing hid

from the head thereof. The law of the Lord is perfect, con- 
verting the soul : the testimony of the Lord is sure, making 
wise the simple. The statutes of the Lord are right, rejoic- 
ing the heart: the commandment of the Lord is pure, en- 
lightening the eyes. The fear of the Lord is clean, endur- 
ing for ever : the judgments of the Lord are true and righteous 
altogether. More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than 
much fine gold ; sweeter also than honey and the honey- 
comb. Moreover by them is thy servant warned: and in 
keeping them there is great reward. Who can understand 
his errors ? cleanse thou me from secret faults. Keep back 
thy servant also from presumptuous sins, let them not have 
dominion over me : then shall I be upright, and I shall be 
innocent from the great transgression. Let the words of 
my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in 
thy sight, Lord! my Strength and my Redeemer. 

A Psalm of David, when he changed his behaviour be- 
fore Abimelech, who drove him away and he departed. — 
I will bless the Lord at all times ; his praise shall continually 
be in my mouth. May soul shall make her boast in the 
Lord : the humble shall hear thereof and be glad. magnify 
the Lord with me and let us exalt his name together. I sought 
the Lord and he heard me and delivered me from all my 
fears. They looked unto him and were lightened; and their 
faces were not ashamed. This poor men cried, and the Lord 
heard him and saved him out of all his troubles. The angel 
of the Lord encampeth round about them, that fear him and 
delivereth him. O taste and see, that the Lord is good : 
blessed is the man, that trusteth in him. fear the Lord, 
ye his saints: for there is ne wanjt to them, that fear him. 
The young lions do lack and sufier hunger : but they, that

thy lips from speaking guile. Depart from evil and do good : 
seek peace and pursue it. The eyes of the Lord are upon 
the righteous and his ears are open unto their cry ; the face 
of the Lord is against them, that do evil, to cut off the re- 
membrance of them from the earth. The righteous cry and 
the Lord heareth and delivereth them out of all their troubles. 
The Lord is nigh unto them, that are of a broken heart and 
saved such, as be of a contrite spirit. Many are the afflic- 
tions of the righteous ; but the Lord delivered him out of 
them all. He keepeth all his bones ; not one of them is 
broken. Evil shall slay the wicked ; and they that hate the 
righteous, shall be desolate. The Lord redeemeth the soul of his 
servants, and none ofthem that trust in him shall be desolate. 

A Prayer of Moses, the Godly Man. — Lord! thou 
hast been our dwelling-place in all generations. Before the 
mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hast formed the 
earth and the world: even from everlasting to everlasting, 
thou art God. Thou turnest man to destruction ; and say est, 
return ye children of men. For a thousand years in thy sight 
are but as yesterday, when it is past, and as a watch in the 
night. Thou carriest them away as with a flood, they are as a 
sleep : in the morning they are like grass, which groweth up. 
In the morning it flourisheth and groweth up ; in the evening it is 
cut down and vvithereth, For we are consumed by thine anger 
and by thy wrath are we troubled. Thou hast set our iniquities 
before thee, our secret sins in the light of thy countenance. 
For all our days are passed away in thy wrath ; we spend our 
years as a tale, that is told. The days of our years are three- 
score years and ten ; and if by ^'eason of strength they be four-

of thine anger? even according to thy fear, so is thy wrath. 
So teach us to number our daj^s, that we may apply our 
hearts unto wisdom. Return, O Lord ! how long? and let 
it repent thee concerning thy servants. satisfy us early 
with thy mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad all our 
days. Make us glad according to the days w^herein thou 
hast afflicted us, and the years wherein we have seen evil. 
Let thy work appear unto thy servants, and thy glory unto 
their children. 

And let the beauty of the Lord, our God, be upon us ; and 
establish thou the work of our hands upon us, yea, the work 
of our hands establish thou it. He who dwelleth in the secret 
place of the Most High, shall abide unto the shadow of the 
Almighty. I wdll say of the Lord, he is my refuge and my 
fortress; my God, in him will I trust. He surely will de- 
liver thee from the fowler's snare, and from the noxious pes- 
tilence. He will cover thee with his feathers, and under 
his wrings shalt thou take refuge : for his truth shall be thy 
shield and buckler, thou shalt not be afraid of the terror of 
the night, nor of the arrow, which flieth by day ; of the pes- 
tilence which stalketh in midnight gloom ; nor of the de- 
struction that wasteth at noonday. A thousand shall fall 
at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand ; but thou 
shalt remain untouched. Thou shalt only behold it with 
thine eyes, and see the reward of the wicked. Because thou 
hast made the Lord, who is my refuge, even the Most High, 
thy stronghold. No evil shall befall thee, neither shall any 
plague approach thy dwelling ; for he will give his angels 
charge concerning thee, to guard thee in all thy ways. They 
shall bear thee on their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against 
a stone. On the fierce lion and the asp shalt thou tread;

41 MORNING SERVICE 

the young Hon and the dragon shalt thou trampel under 
feet. Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I 
deliver him : I will set him on high, because he hath known 
my name. He shall call upon me, and I will answer him : 
I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him, and grant 
him honor. With length of days will I satisfy him, and 
show him my salvation. 

Praise the Lord : praise ye the name of the Lord, praise 
him, O ye servants of the Lord. Ye that stand in the house 
of the Lord, in the courts of the house of our God. Praise 
ye the Lord, for the Lord is good : sing praise unto his name, 
for it is pleasant. For the Lord hath chosen Jacob unto 
himself, and Israel for his peculiar treasure. For I know, 
that the Lord is great, and that our* Lord is above all gods. 
What soever the Lord pleased, that did he in heaven and in 
earth, in the seas, and all deep places. Hecauseth the va- 
pours to ascend from the ends of the earth, he maketh light- 
nings for the rain: he bringeth the wind out of his treasures. 
Who smote the first-born of Egypt, both of man and beast. 
Who sent tokens and wonders into the midst of thee, Egypt ! 
upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants. Who smote great 
nations and slew mighty kings : Sihon, king of the Amorites, 
and Og, king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan : 
and gave their land for an heritage, an heritage unto Israel 
his people. Thy name, Lord ! endureth for ever, and thy 
memorial, Lord, throughout all generations. For the Lord 
will judge his people, and he will repent himself concerning 
his servants. The idols of the heathens are silver and gold, 
the work of men's hands. They have mouths, but they speak 
not; eyes have they, but they see not. They have ears, but 
they hear not ; neither is there any breath in their mouths. 
They that make them, are like unto them : so is every one

commanded and it stood fast. The Lord bringeth the counsel 
of the heathen to nought, he maketh the devices of the people 
of none effect. The counsel of the Lord standeth for ever, 
the thoughts of his heart to all generations. Blessed is the 
nation, whose god is the Lord and the people, whom he hath 
chosen for his own inheritance. The Lord looketh from 
heaven, he beholdeth all the sons of men. From the place 
of his habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants of the 
earth. He fashioneth their hearts alike, he considereth all 
their works. There is no king saved by the multitude of a 
host, a mighty man, is not delivereth by much strength. A 
horse is a vain thing for safety, neither shall he deliver any 
by his great strength. Behold, the eye of the Lord is upoa 
them, that fear him, upon them, that hope in his mercy, to 
deliver their souls from death and to keep them alive in 
famine. Our soul waithet for the Lord, he is our help and 
our shield. For our heart shall rejoice in him, because we 
have trusted in his holy name. Let thy mercy, Lord, be 
upon us, according as we hope in thee. 

A Psalm or Song for the Sabbath Day. — It is a good 
thing to give thanks unto the Lord and to sing praises unto 
thy name. Most High ! to show forth thy loving kindness 
in the morning and thy faithfulness every night; upon an 
instrument of ten strings and upon the psaltery ; upon the 
harp with a solemn sound. For thou. Lord! hast made me 
glad through thy work ; I will triumph in the works of thy 
hand^. Lord ! how great are thy works'? and thy thoughts 
are very deep. A brutish man knoweth not, neither doth a 
fool understand this. When the wicked spring up as the 
grass and when all the workers of iniquity do flourish : it is, 
that they shall be destroyed for ever. But thou. Lord! art 
Most High for evermore. For lo, thine enemies, Lord !

shall be scattered. But mine horn shalt thou exalt like the 
horn of an unicorn : I shall be anointed with fresh oil. Mine 
eye also shall see my desire on mine enemies and mine ears 
shall hear my desire of the wicked, that rise up against me. 
The righteous shall flourish like the palm-tree ; he shall grow 
like a cedar in Lebanon. Those, that be planted in the house 
of the Lord, shall flourish in the courts of our God. They 
shall still bring forth fruit in old age : they shall be fat and 
flourishing ; to show, that the Lord is upright : he is my 
rock and there is no unrighteousness in him. 

The Lord reigneth, he is clothed with majesty, the Lord 
is clothed with strength, wherewith he hath girdeth himself : 
the world also is established, that it cannot be moved. Thy 
throne is established of old : thou art from everlasting. The 
floods have lifted up, O Lord! the floods have lifted up their 
voice : the floods lift up their waves. The Lord on high is 
mightier than the noise of many waters, yea, than the mighty 
waves of the sea. Thy testimonies are very sure : holiness 
becometh thine house, O Lord ! for ever. 

The glory of the Lord shall endure for ever : the Lord re- 
joiceth in his works. Blessed be the name of the Lord, from 
this time forth and for evermore. From the rising of the 
sun unto the going down of the same, the Lord's name is to 
be praised. The Lord is high above all nations and his 
glory above the heavens-. Thy name, Lord! endureth for

The Lord hath prepared his throne in the heavens : and his 
kingdom ruleth over all. Let the heavens be glad, and

Lord is King for ever and ever : the heathen are perished 
out of his land. The Lord bringeth the counsel of the heathen 
to nought : he maketh the devices of the people of none effect. 
There are many devices in a man's heart ; nevertheless the 
counsel of the Lord, that shall stand. The counsel of the 
Lord standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all ge- 
nerations. For he spoke, and it was done; he commandeth, 
and it was done ; he commanded, and it stood fast. For 
the Lord hath chosen Zion : he hath desired it for his habi- 
tation; for the Lord hath chosen Jacob unto himself, and 
Israel for his peculiar treasure. For the Lord will not cast 
off his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance ; but 
he being full of compassion forgive th iniquity, and destroy- 
eth not ; yea, many a time turneth he his anger away, and 
stirreth not up all his wrath. Save Lord! and answer us, 
King ! in the day of our calling. 

Happy are they that dwell in thy house : they will be al- 
ways praising thee. Selah. Happy is that people that is 
in such a case ; yea, happy is that people whose God is the 
Lord. 

Davids Psalm of Pbaise. — I will extol thee, my God, 

King ! and I will bless thy name for ever and ever. Every 
day will I bless thee, and I will praise thy name for ever 
and ever. Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised; and 
his greatness is unsearchable. One generation shall praise 
thy works to another, and shall declare thj^ mighty acts. 

1 will speak of the glorious honor of thy majesty, and of thy 
wondrous works. And men shall speak of the might of thy 
terrible acts : and I will declare thy greatness. They shall 
abundaiitl}^ utter the memory of thy great goodness and shall 
sing of thy righteousness. The Lord is gracious and full of 
compassion: slow to anger and of great mercy. The Lord 
is good to all, and his tender mercies are over all his works.

All thy works shall praise thee, Lord ! and thy saints shall 
bless thee. The shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom, 
and talk of thy power. To make known to the sons of men 
his mighty acts, and the glorious majesty of his kingdom. 
Thy kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and thy dominion 
endureth throughout all generations. The Lord upholdeth 
all that fall, and raiseth up all those that be bowed down. 
The eyes of all wait upon thee, and thou givest them their 
meat in due season. Thou openest thine hand ; and satis- 
fieth the desire of every living thing. The Lord is righteous 
in all his ways, and holy in all his works. The Lord is nigh 
unto all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him 
in truth. He will fulfill the desire of them that fear him: 
he also will hear their cry, and will save them. The Lord 
preserveth all them that love him: but the wicked will he 
destroy. My mouth shall speake the praise of the Lord : 
and let all flesh bless his holy name for ever and ever. And 
as for us, we will bless the Lord from this time forth and 
for evermore. Hallelujah! praise ye the Lord. 

Praise ye the Lord. Praise the Lord, my soul. While 
I live, will I bless the Lord ; I will sing praises unto my 
God, while I have any being. Put not your trust in prin- 
ces, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help. His 
breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth : in that every 
day his thoughts perish. Happy is he that hath the God of 
Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the Lord his God : who 
made heaven and earth, the sea and all that therein is : who 
keepeth truth for ever, who executeth judgment for the op- 
pressed : who giveth food to the hungry. The Lord looseth 
the prisoners : the Lord openeth the eyes of the blind : the 
Lord raiseth them that are bowed down : the Lord loveth 
the righteous : the Lord preserveth the strangers : he relieveth

the fatherless and the widow : but the way of the wicked he 
turneth upsight down. The Lord shall reign for ever; even 
thy God, Zion ! unto all generations. Praise ye the 
Lord. 

Praise ye the Lord : for it is good to sing praise unto our 
God; for it is pleasant, and praise is comely. The Lord 
doth build up Jerusalem, he gathered together the outcasts 
of Israel. He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth 
up their wounds. He telleth the number of the stars : he 
calleth them all by their names. Great is our Lord, and of 
great power: his understanding is infinite. The Lord lifteth 
up the meek : he casteth the wicked down to the ground : 
sing unto the Lord with thanksgiving : sing praise upon the 
harp unto our God : who covereth the heaven with clouds, who 
prepaireth rain for the earth, who maketh grass to grow 
upon the mountains. He giveth to the beast his foot, and 
to the young ravens which cry. He delighteth not in the 
strength of the horse : he taketh not pleasure in the legs of 
a man. The Lord taketh pleasure in them that fear him, 
and in those that hope in his mercy. Praise the Lord! 
Jerusalem ! praise thy God, Zion. For he hath strength- 
ened the bars of thy gate : he hath blessed thy children 
within thee. He maketh peace in thy borders and filleth 
thee with the finest of the wheat. He sendeth forth his com- 
mandment upon earth ; his word runneth very swiftly. 
He giveth snow like wool ; he scattereth the hoar-frost like 
ashes. He casteth forth his ice like morsels; who can stand 
before his cold? he sendeth out his word, and melteth them; 
he causeth his wind to blow, and the waters flow. He show- 
eth his word unto Jacob, his statutes and his judgments unto 
Israel. He hath not dealt so with any nation: as for his 
judgments, they have not known them. Praise ye the Lord.

ens : praise him in the heights. Praise ye him all his 
angels: praise ye him all his hosts. Praise ye him sun and 
moon : praise him all ye stars of light. Praise him ye heav- 
ens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens ; 
let them praise the name of the Lord ; for he commanded, 
and they were created. He hath also established them for 
ever and ever ; he hath made a decree which shall not pass. 
Praise the Lord from the earth, ye dragons and all deeps. 
Fire and hail, snow and vapour, stormy wind fulfilling his 
word. Mountains and all hills, fruitful trees and all cedars. 
Beasts and all cattle, creeping things, and flying fowls. 
Kings of the earth, and all people; princes, and all judges 
of the earth. Both young men and maidens, old men and 
children. Let them praise the name of the Lord : for his 
name alone is excellenth, his glory is above the earth and 
heaven. He also exaltet the horn of his people, the praise 
of all his saints ; even of the children of Israel, a people 
near unto him. Praise ye the Lord. 

Praise ye the Lord. Sing unto the Lord a new song, and 
his praise in the congregation of saints. Let Israel rejoice 
in him that made him : let the children of Zion be joyful in 
their King. Let them praise his name in the dance ; let 
them sing praises unto him with the timbrel and harp. For 
the Lord taketh pleasure in his people ; he will beautify the 
meek with salvation. Let the saints be joyful in glory: let 
them sing aloud upon their beds. Let the high praises cf 
God be in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand ; 
to execute vengeance upon the heathen, and punishments 
upon the people ; to bind their kings with chains, and their 
nobles with fetters of irons ; to execute upon them the judg-

ments written : this honor have all his saints. Praise ye 
the Lord. 

Praise ye the Lord. Praise God in his sanctuary, praise 
him in the firmament of his power. Praise him for his 
mighty acts; praise him according to his excellent great- 
ness. Praise him with the sound of the trumpet: praise 
him with the psaltery and harp. Praise him with the timbrel 
and dance : praise him with stringed instruments and organs. 
Praise him upon the loud cymbals ; praise him upon the 
highsounding cymbals. Let every thing that hath breath, 
praise the Lord. Praise ye the Lord. 

Blessed is the Lord for evermore. Amen and Amen. 
Blessed be the Lord out of Zion who dwelleth at Jerusalem, 
Hallelujah ! praise ye the Lord. Blessed be the Lord God, 
the God of Israel ! who only doeth wondrous things, and 
blessed be his glorious name for ever; and let the whole 
earth be filled with his glory. Amen and Amen. 

And David blessed the Lord before all the congregation : 
and David said, blessed be thou, Lord God of Israel our 
Father, for ever and ever. Thine, Lord ! is the great- 
ness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the 
majesty: for all that is in the heaven and in the earth is 
thine: thine is the kingdom, Lord! and thou art exalted 
as head above all. Both riches and honor come of thee, 
and thou reignest over all, and in thine hand is power and 
might, and in thine hand it is to make great, and to give 
strength unto all. Now therefore, our God, we thank thee, 
and praise thy glorious name. Thou even thou art Lord 
alone, thou hast made heaven, the heaven of heavens with 
all their host, the earth and all things that are therein, the 
seas and all that is therein, and thou preservest them all.

and the host of heaven worshippeth thee. Thou art the Lord 
our God who didst chose Abrara, and broughtest him forth 
out of Ur, of the Chaldees, and gavest him the name of 
Abraham: and didst find his hearth faithful before thee. 

And madest a covenant with him, to give the land of the 
Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, and the Perizzites, 
and the Jebusites, and the Girgashites, to give it, I say, to 
his seed, and hast performed thy words, for thou art right- 
eous ; and didst see the affliction of our fathers in Egypt, 
and didst hear their cry by the Red Sea: andshoweth signs 
and wonders upon Pharaoh, and on all his servants, and on 
all the people of his land , for thou knowest that they dealt 
proudly against them : so didst thou get thee a name, as it 
is this day. And thou didst devide the sea before them, so 
that they w^ent through the midst of the sea on the dry land, 
and their persecutors thou threwest into the deep, as a stone 
into the mighty waters. 

Thus the Lord saved Israel that day out of the land of 
the Egyptians : and Israel saw the Egyptians dead upon 
the sea shore. And Israel saw that great work which the 
Lord did upon the Egyptians : and the people feared the 
Lord, and believed the Lord, and his servant Moses. 

Then sang Moses and the children of Israel this song unto 
the Lord, and spoke, saying, I will sing unto the Lord, for 
he hath triumphed gloriously : the horse and his rider hath 
he thrown into the sea. The Lord is my strength and song: 
he has become my salvation: he is my God, and I will pre- 
pare him a habitation : my father's God, and I will exalt 
him. The Lord is a man of war: the Lord is his name, 
Pharaoh's chariots and his hosts hath he cast into the sea : 
his chosen captains also are drowned in the Red Sea. The

dephts have covered them : they sank into the bottom as a 
stone. Thy right hand, Lord ! is become glorious in 
power: thy right hand, Lord! hath dashed in pieces the 
enemy. And in the greatness of thine excellency thou hast 
overthrown them that rose up against thee : thou didst send 
forth thy wrath, which consumed them as stubble. And with 
the blast of thy nostrils the waters were gathered together, 
the floods stood upright as an heap, and the dephts were 
congealed in the heart of the sea. The enemy said, I will 
pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my lust shall 
be satisfied upon them ; 1 will draw my sword, my hand 
shall destroy them. Thou didst blow with thy wind, the 
sea covered them : they sank as lead in the mighty waters. 
Who is like unto thee, Lord ! amongst the gods? who is 
like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing won- 
ders 1 Thou stretchest out thy right hand, the earth swal- 
lowed them. Thou in thy mercy hast led forth the people, 
which thou hast redeemed : thou hast guided them in thy 
strength unto thy holy habitation. The people shall hear, 
and be afraid ; sorrow shall take hold on the inhabitants of 
Palestine. Then the dukes of Edom shall be amazed ; the 
mighty men of Moab, trembling, shall take hold upon them; 
all the inhabitants of Canaan shall melt aw^ay. Fear and 
dread shall fall upon them ; by the greatness of thine arm 
they shall be as still as a stone : till thy people pass over, 
O Lord ! till the people pass over which thou hast purchased. 
Thou shalt bring them in and plant them, in the mountain 
of thine inheritance; in the place, Lord! which thou hast 
made for thee to dwell in : in the sanctuary, O Lord ! which 
thy hands have established. The Lord shall reign for ever 
and ever. The Lord shall reign for ever and ever. 

For unto the Lord is the kingdom, and he shall command

your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes. 
And ye shalt teach them your children, speaking of them 
when thou sittest in thine house, and w^hen thou walkest by

And thou shalt write them upon the door-posts of thine

Lord swore unto your fathers to give them, as the days of 
heaven upon the earth. 

And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying, speak unto the 
children of Israel, and bid them that they make them fringes

Our Redeemer and Deliverer ; this is thy name from ever-

nihilated speedily, and all the tyi^ants be cut off quickly : 
humble thou them quickly in our days. Blessed art thou, 
Lord! who destroyest enemies, and humblest tyrants. 

Lord, our God ! may thy tender mercy be moved towards 
the just, the pious, and the elders of thy people, the house 
of Israel ; the remnant of their scribes, the virtuous strang-

those who faithfully put their trust in thy name ; and grant, 
that our portion may ever be with them, so that we may not 
be put to shame; for we trust in thee. Blessed art thou, 
O Lord ! who art the support and confidence of the just. 

O be mercifully pleased to return to Jerusalem, thy city;

mourns for the sake of her children, that is solitary for her 
inhabitants, robbed of her honor, desolate without the in- 
habitants of her dwellers ; with her head ashamed, like unto 
a barren woman that beareth not. She is overwhelmed with 
sorrow, because her inheritors are worshippers of images, 
who smote thy people Israel with the sword, and slew wil- 
fully the saints of the Most High. Therefore Zion with bit-

never fail ; thou art merciful,

our trust in thee. 

We adore thee for the miracles, the redemptions, mighty 
deeds, salvation, and triumph, which thou didst bestow upon 
our ancestors in former time, in this season. 

In the days of Matthias the son of Johannan the high 
priest, Ahashmonai and his sons, the tyrannical government 
of Greece rose up against thy people Israel, to make them 
forget thy law, and pass by the statutes of thy will; but 
thou, in thine abundant mercy didst rise up in their be- 
half; in the time of their trouble, didst thou contend for 
them. Thou didst judge their cause, and didst avenge their 
wTongs. Thou didst deliver the mighty into the hands 
of the weak ; a multitude into the hands of a few ; the im- 
pure into the hands of the undefiled ; the wicked into the 
hands of the righteous ; and the proud into the hands of the 
contemplators of thy law. By this didst thou make thyself 
a great and holy name in thy world, and didst work a great 
salvation and redemption for thy people Israel on that day :

thy righteousness, we beseech thee, to let thine anger and 
thy wrath be turned away from Jerusalem, thy city, and 
thy holy mountain : for on account of our sins, and the 
iniquities of our ancestors , Jerusalem , and thy people are

present our supplications before thee for our righteousness,

for wherefore should they say among the people, where is 
their Godl We know we have sinned, and there is none to 
intercede for us : but thy great name, we hope, will support 
us in time of trouble. We know we are destitute of good 
works, act therefore charitably by us, for thy name's sake.

compassion on us^ O Lord, and save us for thy name's

for what can we say? What can we declare? or how shall

high stature bow down. 

O thou, who art ready to receive penitent sinners and 
transgressors, forget us not forever ; for our increasing 
troubles disturb our souls. Arise, and save us, for we trust 
in thee. Our Father, and our King ! although we be desti-

fierce anger upon us, for w^e are thy people, the children

minished glory amo^ig the nations, and our abhorred state: 
which is equal to the defilement of a woman during the time 
of her separation. How long shall thy strength remain in

they may be put to shame, and be dismayed at the loss of ,

Most merciful and gracious God. I have sinned before 
thee; O Lord, who art full of compassion, have mercy on 
me, and accept my supplication. O Lord! rebuke me not 
in thine anger, nor chastise me in thy wrath. Have mercy 
upon me, O Lord ! for I am weak ; heal me, O Lord! for 
my bones are feeble. My soul is also exceedingly feeble ; 
but thou, O Lord! how long yet! — Return, Lord! 
deliver my soul ; O save me for thy mercy's sake. For in 
death there is no remembrance of thee ; in the grave, who 
shall give thanks unto thee ? I am wearied with my sighing ; 
I make my bed to swim every night; with my tears 1 water 
my couch. Mine eye is consumed because of grief ; it wax- 
eth old because of all mine adversaries. Depart from me, 
all ye workers of iniquity, for the Lord hath heard the 
voice of my lamentation. The Lord hathheai'd my suppli- 
cation ; the Lord will accept my prayer. All mine ene- 
mies will be ashamed and confounded : they will retreat 
and be put to shame in an instant. 

O Lord God of Israel, turn from thy fierce wrath, and alter 
the evil decree concerning thy people. 

O look down from heaven, and see how we are become a

and talk of thy power. To make known to the sons of men 
his mighty acts, and the glorious majesty of his kingdom. 
Thy kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and thy dominion 
endureth throughout all generations. The Lord upholdeth 
all that fall, and raiseth up all those that be bowed down. 
The eyes of all wait upon thee, and thou givest them their 
meat in due season. Thou openest thine hand ; and satis-

fieth the desire of every living thing. The Lord is righteous 
in all his ways, and holy in all his works. The Lord is nigh 
unto all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him 
in truth. He will fulfill the desire of them that fear him : 
he also will hear their cry, and will save them. The Lord 
preserveth all them that love him : but the wicked will he 
destroy. My mouth shall speak the praise of the Lord : 
and let all flesh bless his holy name for ever and ever. And 
as for us, we will bless the Lord from this time forth and 
for evermore. Hallelujah ! praise ye the Lord. 

To THE CHIEF MusiciAN. A PsALM OF David. — May 
the Lord hear thee in the day of trouble ; the name of the 
God of Jacob defend thee : send thee help from the sanc- 
tuary, and support thee from Zion ; remember all thy ofier- 
ings, and graciously accept the ashes of thy burnt sacrifice ; 
grant thee according to thine own heart, and fulfill all thy 
counsel. We will rejoice in thy salvation, and in the name 
of our God will we display the banner of triumph : the Lord 
will fulfill all thy requests. Now I know that the Lord saveth 
his anointed; he will him answer from his holy heavens, with 
the saving strength of his right hand. Some trust in war- 
chariots, and some in horses, but we will confide in the name 
of the Lord, our God. They are overthrown and fallen, but 
we are risen up, and exalted. Save us, Eternal ! King ! 
hear us when we call. 

And a Redeemer will come unto Zion, unto those who 
turn from transgressions in Jacob, saith the Lord, and be- 
hold! this is my covenant with them, said the Eternal, my 
spirit which is upon thee, and my words which I have put

into thy mouth, shall not depart from thy mouth; nor from 
the mouth of thy children, nor from the mouth of thy child- 
ren's children, said the Lord, from henceforth and for 
evermore. 

Thou who art Most Holy, abidest amongst the praises of 
Israel. And one (angel) called unto another, and said, holy, 
holy, holy is the Lord of Hosts ! the whole earth is full of 
his glory. And they (the angels) receive the world one from 
the other, and say, holy in yon high heavens, in the exalted 
temple of his divine omnipresence ; holy upon the earth, the 
work of his power ; holy to all eternity, the Lord of Hosts ! 
the whole earth is full of his glory; and a wind carried me 
away, and I heard behind me a thundering voice, that said, 
blessed be the glory of the Lord : from his place, the resi- 
dence of his divine omnipresence ; the Eternal will reign for 
ever and evermore; thy kingdom, Eternal, is permanent 
for ever, even of infinite duration. Lord ! God of Abra- 
ham, Isaac, and Israel, our ancestors ; preserve this for ever- 
more to incline the thougths of the heart of thy people, and 
dispose their hearts aright, to serve thee. But being merci- 
ful he forgiveth iniquity, and destroyeth not; yet he fre- 
quently turneth his anger away, and awakeneth not all his 
wrath ; for thou, Lord ! art good, and forgiving, and of 
abundant mercy, unto all that call upon thee ; thy righteous- 
ness is imutable, and thy law is truth. O accomplish truth 
unto Jacob, and thy mercy unto Abraham, which thou didst 
swear unto them in time of old. Blessed be the Lord day 
by day ; though he burthens us, yet he, the Omnipotent, is 
our help. The Lord of Hosts is with us : the God of Jacob 
is our protection. Lord of Hosts ! happy is the man that 
placeth his confidence in thee. O Lord! save us; answer 
us, King ! when we call upon thee. Blessed be our God !

who created us for his glorification ; and seperated us from 
those that go astray, by giving us a law of truth, and plant- 
ing amongst us eternal life. He will open our hearts in the 
knowledge of his law, and fix love and reverence in our 
hearts, to perform his will, and to serve him with an upright 
heart, that we may not labor in vain, nor produce confusion. 
Be graciously pleased, O Eternal, our God ! and the God of 
our ancestors, to enable us to observe the statutes ia this 
w^orld ; so that we may merit to live and see, and inherit 
the happiness and the blessing ; in the time of the Messiah, 
and in the life of a future state; that my soul may praise 
thy glory without ceasing. Lord, my God ! for ever will 
I praise thee. Blessed is the man that confides in the Lord ! 
the Lord will be his protection : confide ye it the Eternal 
at all times; for the Eternal God is an everlasting Rock. 
All that know thy name, confide in thee ; for thou dost not 
forsake those who earnestly seek thee. The Lord was 
pleased for his righteousness sake, to magnify the law, and 
to glorify it. 

may the mighty power of the Lord be now magnified, 
as thou hast declared, saying, Lord! remember thy ten- 
der mercies, and thy loving kindnesses, for they have been 
of old. 

May his great name be exalted, and sanctified through- 
out the world, which he hath created, according to his will. 
May he establish his kingdom in our life-time, and in the 
life-time ot the whole house of Israel; soon, and in a short 
time, and say ye. Amen. 

Amen. May his great name be blessed/ and glorified 

for ever and ever. 
May his hallowed name be praised, glorified, exalted.

It is incumbent on us to praise the sovereign Lord of all 
the Universe ; to ascribe greatness unto him, who formed 
the world in the beginning : who hath not made us like those 
nations, nor situated, us like those families of the earth, nor 
allotted our portion with the multitude. For we reverently 
kneel, -bow, and prostrate, before the Supreme King of kings, 
holy and blessed is he ! who hath extended the heavens, and 
laid the foundation of the earth ; the residence of whose 
glory is in the heavens above, and his potent and divine pre-, 
sence in the highest emporium. He is our God, and there 
is no other: he is truly our King, and besides him there is 
no other; as it is written in his law, know therefore this 
day, and consider it in thine heart, that the Lord, he is

God ! In heaven above, and upon the earth beneath ; there is 
none else. 

We therefore hope in thee, Lord; our God ! speedily to 
behold thy glorious power ; to remove the abomination from 
the earth, and cause the idols to be utterly destroyed; that 
the Universe may be established under the sole dominion of 
the Allmighty, so that all flesh may invoke thy name, all 
the wicked turn unto thee, and all the inhabitants of the 
world know and acknowledge, that unto thee everj knee shall 
bend, and every tongue swear. Before thee, Lord, our 
God ! shall they kneel and fall prostrate, and to thy glo- 
rious name shall they ascribe honor; and all of them shall 
willingly submit to the yoke of thy dominion. Deign thou, 
therefore, to reign over them for ever and ever : for the king- 
dom is thine, and for ever and ever thou shalt reign in glory; 
as it is written in thy law, the Lord shall reign for ever 
and ever. 

Unto Israel, their rabbins, their disciples and all their 
successors, who diligently study the law, who are in this, 
and every other place; may there be unto them, and to you, 
abundant peace, grace, favor, mercy, long life, enlarged 
maintenance, and redemption, from the presence of the Lord 
of heaven and earth, and say ye. Amen,

EVE OF THE SABBATH SERVICE. 

come let us sing unto the Lord : let us shout to the Rock 
of our salvation. Let us approach his presence with thanks- 
giving, and joyfully sing hymns imto him. For the Lord is 
a great God, and a great king above all gods. In whose 
hand are the depths of the earth : and the summit of the 
hills is his also. The sea is his, for he made it: and his 
hands formed the dry land. Come, let as bow down, bend 
the knee, and prostrate ourselves before the Lord, who hath 
made us. For he is our God, and we are the flock of his 
pasture, and the sheep of his hand; even this day if ye will 
hearken to his voice. Harden not your hearts, as in the day 
of strife, and temptation in the wilderness. "When your fa- 
thers provoked me, and proved me ; though they saw my 
wondrous work. Fourthy years was I grieveth with this ge- 
neration, and said, it is a people of an erring heart, for they 
have not considered my ways. Then I swore in my wrath, 
that they should not come to the place of my rest. 

Sing unto the Lord a new song; let all the earth sing 
unto the Lord. Sing unto the Lord, bless his name ; pro- 
claim his salvation from day to day. Declare his glory 
among the heathen, his wonders among all people. For the 
Lord is great, and exalted in praise ; he is to be reverred 
above all gods. For all the gods of the gentiles are idols ; 
but the Lord hath made the heavens. Splendour and ma- 
jesty are in his presence ; in his sanctuary triumph and beauty. 
Ascribe unto the Lord, O ye families, of the people; ascribe 
unto the Lord glory and triumph ; ascribe unto the Lord the 
glory due unto his name : bring an offering, and enter into 
his courts. Worship the Lord in holy attire; let all the 
earth tremble before him. Declare ye among the heathen, 
that the Lord reigneth; he hath also fixed the foundation of 
the world, that it might not be moved : he will judge the

be glad: let the sea roar, and all it contains. Let the field 
be joyful, and all that is therein : then shall all the trees of 
the wood shout : because of the presence of the Lord, for he 
cometh : he cometh to judge the earth, he will judge the 
world in righteousness, and the people with his faithfulness. 
The Lord reigneth; the earth is glad; the numerous isles 
rc'joice. Clouds and thick darkness are round about him : 
righteousness and justice are the basis of his throne. A fire 
goeth forth before him, and burneth up his enemies round 
about. His lightnings enlighted the world: the earth saw, 
and trembled. The mountains meldet like wax at the pre- 
sence of the Eternal ; at the presence of the Lord of the 
whole earth. The heavens proclaim his righteousness ; and 
all fehe nations see his glor3^ Confounded be the worship- 
pers of graven images ; even they who glory in idols ; all 
gods prostrate themselves before him. Zion heard and re- 
joiced, and the daughters of Judah were glad; because of 
thy judgments, O Eternal ! for thou, Lord ! art high above 
all the earth : thou art exceedingly exalted above all gods. 
They w^ho love the Lord, hate evil. He preserveth the souls 
of his saints, and delivereth them from the hands of the 
wncked. Light us sown righteous, and gladness for the 
true-hearted. Rejoice in the Lord, ye righteous; and 
give thanks unto his holy name. 

A Psalm. — Sing unto the Lord a new song, for he hath 
done wondrous things ; his right hand, and his holy arm 
have gained him the victory. The Lord hath made known 
his salvation ; and manifested his righteousness in the sight 
of the gentiles. He hath remembered his mercy and truth 
to the house of Israel ; all the extremities of the earth have 
seen the salvation of our God. Shout unto the Lord all ye 
inhabitants of the earth. Burst forth into joy, shout and

sing praise. Sing unto the Lord with the harp ; with the 
harp, and the voice of psalm ; with trumpets and the sound 
of cornets, make a joyful noise before the Eternal, the King! 
Let the sea, and its full domains, roar ; the terrestrial globe, 
and they, who dwell therein ! Let the floods clap the hand, 
let the mountains be joyfull together, before the Lord ; for 
he cometh to judge the earth ; in righteousness will he judge 
the world and the people with equity. 

The Lord reigneth ! the gentiles tremble ! he dwelleth 
above the cherubim ; the earth totters ! The Lord is great in 
Zion : he is high above all people. Let them praise thy name, 
for it is great, awful and holy ! The power of the King is, 
that he love th justice; thou hast established equity, thou 
hast executed justice; and righteousness in Jacob. Extol 
ye the Lord our God, and prostrate yourselves at his foot- 
stool; holy is he ! Moses and Aaron, among his priests, and 
Samuel, among those who. called on his name; they called on 
the Lord, and he answered them. Out of the pillar of a 
cloud he spake unto them; they observed his testimonies, 
and the statute which he gave unto them. Thou didst an- 
swer them, Eternal, our God! thou wast a favoring God 
to them, though thou didst take vengeance of their bad actions. 
Extol ye the Eternal, our God! and worship at his holy 
mount; for the Eternal, our GodI is holy. 

A Psalm of David. — Ascribe unto the Lord, O ye sons 
of the mighty, ascribe glory and might unto the Lord. 
Ascribe unto the Lord the glory due unto his name ; worship 
the Lord in holy attire. The voice of the Lord is upon 
the waters ; the God of glory thundereth; the Lord is upon 
many waters. The voice of the Lord is powerful! ; the 
voice of the Lord is full of majesty. The voice of the 
Lord breaketh in pieces the cedars ; yea, the Lord breaketh 
the cedars of Lebanon. He also maketh them skip like a

the Eternal is a Unity, and his name is Unity; to him ap- 
pertaineth renown, glory and praise. Come, my beloved, &c. 

Come, let us go to meet the sabbath-day, for it is the 
fountain of blessing ; in the beginning of old was it appoin- 
ted ; for though last in creation, yet it was first in the de- 
sign of God. Come, my beloved, &c. 

O thou sanctuarj^ of the King ! O royal city ! arise, and 
come forth, from thy subversion ; thou hast dwelt long 
enough in the abode of calamity, for he will now pity thee 
with kindness. Come, my beloved, &c. 

Shake oF the dust ; arise, O my people! and adorn thy- 
self with thy beautiful attire ; for by the hand of Jesse, the 
Bethlemite, redemption draweth nigh to my soul. Come, 
my beloved, &c. 

Rouse thyself : rouse thyself: arise, shine, for thy light 
is come. Awake, awake, utter a song for the glory of the 
Lord is revealed upon thee. Come, my beloved, &c. 

be not ashamed, neither be thou confounded. O Jeru- 
salem ! why art thou cast down ? why art thou disquieted ? 
In thee, the poor of my people shall take refuge, and the 
city shall be built on her own heap. Come, my beloved, &c.

A Psalm or Song for the Sabbaih-Day. — It is agood 
thing to give thanks unto the Lord and to sing praises unto 
thy name, Most High ! to show forth thy loving kindness 
in the morning and thy faithfulness every night ; upon an 
instrument of ten strings and upon the psaltery ; upon the 
harp with a solemn sound. For thou, Lord ! hast made me 
glad through thy work; I will triumph in the works of thy 
hands. Lord! how great are thy works'? and thy thoughts 
are very deep. A brutish man knov/eth not, neither doth a 
fool understand this. When the wicked spring up as the 
grass and when all the Avorkers of iniquity do flourish: it is, 
that the shall be destroyeth for ever. But thou, Lord! art 
Mo^t High for evermore. For lo, thine enemies, O Lord! 
for lo, thine enemies shall perish : all the workers of iniquity 
shall be scattered. But mine horn shalt thou exalt like the 
horn of an unicorn : I shall be anointed with fresh oil. Mine 
eye also shall see my desire on mine enemies and mine ears 
shall hear my desire of the wicked, that rise up against me. 
The righteous shall flourish like the palm-tree; he shall grow 
like a cedar in Lebanon. Those, that he planted in the house 
of the Lord, shall flourish in the courts of our God. They

flourishing; to show, that the Lord is upright: he is my 
rock and there is no unrighteousness in him. 

The Lord reigneth, he is clothed with majesty, the Lord 
is clothed with strength, wherewith he hathgirdeth himself: 
the world also is established, that it cannot be moved. Thy 
throne is established of old: thou art from everlasting. The 
floods have lifted up, O Lord ! the floods have lifted up their

mightier than the noise of many waters, yea, than the mighty 
waves of the sea. Thy testimonies are very sure : holiness 
becometh thine house, Lord ! for ever.

And it shall come to pass, if ye shall hearken diligently

love the Lord j^our God, and to serve him with all your heart 
and with all your soul. That I will give you the rain of 
your land in its due season, the i5rst rain and the latter rain, 
that thou mayest gather in thy corn, thy wine, and thine oil. 
And I will send grass in thy fields for thy cattle, that thou 
mayest eat and be full. Take heed to yourselves that your 
heart be not deceived, and ye turn aside and serve other 
gods, and worship them. And then the Lord's wrath be 
kindled against you, and he shut up the heaven that there 
be no rain, and that the land yield not her fruit; and lest 
ye perish quickly from off the good land which the Lord 
giveth you. Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in 
your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon 
your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes. 
And ye shalt teach them your children, speaking of them 
when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by

And thou shalt write them upon the door-posts of thine

ye may look upon it, and remember all the commandments 
of the Lord, and do them : that ye seek not after your own 
heart, and your own eyes, after which ye use to go astray : 
that ye may remember and do all my commandments, a'nd

brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God : I am 
the Lord your God. 

All this is truth and certainty, and irrefutable, that the 
Eternal is our God! and besides him there. is none, we 
(Israel) are his people, whom he hath redeemed from the 
hands of kings ; he is our King, who hath delivered us from 
the power of tyrants. He is the Almighty : who was reven- 
ged of us on our adversaries, and who gave a just reward 
unto all our enemies. Who doeth great things, which can- 
not be investigated; yea, miracles and wonders without 
number; who did keep us alive, and suffered not our feet to 
slip. He caused us to tread on the high places of our ene- 
mies, and exalted our horn over all our adversaries ; for our 
sake he performed miracles, and was revenged on Pharaoh; 
he performeth prodigies and tokens in the land of the chil- 
dren of Ham ; who in his wrath, smote all the firstborn of 
Egypt, and brought out his people Israel from among them, 
unto perpetual liberty, and conducted his children between 
the divisions of the Red Sea. Their pursuers, and their 
enemies, he caused to sink in the deep. His children did 
see his mighty power; they praised his name, and with plea-

Who is like unto thee, Lord! among the mighty? Who 
is like thee, glorious in holiness, tremendous in praises, work- 
ing miracles'? 

Thy kingdom thy children beheld, when thou didst devide 
the sea for Moses. Thus they proclaimed, and said, the 
Lord will reign for ever and ever. 

And it is written, for the Lord hath redeemed Jacob, and 
delivered him from the hand that was stronger than he. 
Blessed art thou, Lord! who hath redeemed Israel. 

Lord, our God ! cause us to lie down in peace, and raise 
us up, our King ! to a happy life. spread thy pavilion 
of peace over us, and direct us with good counsel from thy 
presence ; and save us for the sake of thy name. O shield 
us, and remove from us the stroke of the enemy, the pesti- 
lence, sword, famine, and sorrow : and remove the adversary 
from before and behind us, and conceal us under the shadow 
of thy wings; for thou, O God! art our guardian and de- 
liverer ; and thou, God ! art a merciful and gracious King. 
O guard us at our going out and coming in, with a happy 
and peaceable life, from henceforth and for evermore. 

Blessed art thou, O Lord! who guardeth his people Israel 
for ever. 

O spread over us the tabernacle of thy people. Blessed 
art thou, Eternal! who spreadeth the tabernacle of peace 
over us, and over all his people Israel, and over Jerusalem. 

And the children of Israel shall keep the sabbath, observ- 
ing the sabbath throughout their generations for a perpetual 
covenant. It is a sign between me and the children of Israel 
for ever; for in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, 
and on the seventh day he rested and was refreshed. 

And Moses declared the solemn feasts of the Lord unto 
the children of Israel.

Blow the cornet on the new moon ; on the day of our so- 
lemn feast. It is a statute for Israel; and ordinance of the 
God of Jacob. 

For on this day shall he make an atonement for you, to 
cleanse you ; that ye may be clean from all your sins before 
the Lord. 

Blessed is the Lord for evermore, Amen and Amen. 
Blessed be the Lord out of Zion who dwelleth at Jerusalem, 
Hallelujah! praise ye the Lord. Blessed be the Lord God, 
the God of Israel ! who alone doeth wondrous things, and 
blessed be his glorious name for ever ; and let the wholo 
earth be filled with his glory. Amen ! Amen! The glory of 
the Lord endureth for ever ! the Lord rejoiceth in his works. 
Blessed be the name of theLo^i-d, from henceforth, and for 
evermore. The Lord will not abaiidoii his people, for the 
sake of hisgreat name : for the Lord pleased to make you his 
people: and when all the people saw it, they fell on their 
faces, and said, the Eternal is the only God! the Eternal is 
the only God! the Eternal will be King over all the earth. 
On that day the Eternal will be acknowledged a Unity; and 
his name will also be Unity. Let thy mercy, Lord ! be 
upon us, according as we hope in thee. Save us, God of 
our salvation, and gather us together, and deliver us from the 
gentiles, that we may give thanks to thy holy name, and 
glory in thy praise. All nations which thou hast made, will 
come and worship thee, O Lord ! and glorify thy name : for 
thou art great and doest wondrous things. Thou alone art God ; 
we are thy people, the sheep of thy pasture : we will ever give 
thanks unto thee, and to all generations recount thy praise. 

Blessed be the Lord by day, and blessed be the Lord by 
night; blessed be the Lord when we lie down, and blessed 
hft the Lord when we rise up ; for in thy hand are the souls

Blessed art thou, Lord ! who blesseth his people Israel 
with peace.

161 SERVICE FOR THE EVE OF SABBATH 

my God, be pleased to guard my tongue from evil, and 
tny lips from uttering deceit. And be thou silent, my soul, 
to those who curse me ; and grant that my soul may be 
humble as the dust to every one. Open my heart to receive 
thy law, that my soul may pursue thy commandments. Spee- 
dily, I beseech thee, frustrate the devices, and destroy the 
maginations of all those who imagine evil against me. 
grant it for thy name : grant it for thy right hand ; grant 
it for thy holiness ; grant it for thy law ; that thy beloved 
may be delivered. save me with thy right hand and an- 
swer me. May the words of my mouth and the meditations 
of my heart, be acceptable in thy presence, O Lord ! who 
art my Rock and Redeemer. May he who maketh peace 
in his high heavens, grant peace unto us, and all Israel, 
and say ye. Amen. Let it be acceptable before thee, O Lord, 
our God ! and the God of our fathers, that the holy temple 
may speedily be rebuilt in our days; and let our portion be 
in thy law. 

Blessed art thou, Eternal, our God, and the God of 
our ancestors, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and 
the God of Jacob; the great, mighty, and tremendous God! 
the most high God ! Creator of the heavens and the earth. 

He was the chield of our ancestors with his word ; he re- 
viveth the death at his command; he is the holy God! for 
there is none like unto him, who granteth rest unto his people 
on his holy sabbath ; for delighting in them, he was pleased 
to grant them rest, we therefore will worship him with reve- 
rential awe, and will contir.ually praise his name daily, the 
source of all blessings ; tlie God, to whom thanksgivings are 
due; the Lord of peace, who sanctifieth the sabbath, and 
blesseth the seventh day ; and granteth holy rest to a people 
satiated with delight, as a me morial of the work of the creation.

SABBATH MORNING SERVICE. 

The breath of all living bless thy name, Lord, our 
God! the spirit of all flesh, continually glorify and extol 
thy memorial, our King ! thou art God from eternity to 
eternity; besides thee, we acknowledge neither king, re- 
deemer, or saviour; thou redeemest, deliverest, maintainest, 
and hast compassion over us, in all times of trouble and 
distress; we have no king but the. Thou art God of the 
first, and God of the last, the God of all creatures; the 
Lord of all productions ; thou art abored with all manner 
of praise; who governeth the Universe with tenderness, and 
thy creatures with mercy. Lo! the Lord neither slumber- 
eth nor sleepeth, but rouseth those who sleep, awakeneth 
those who slumber; causeth the dumb to speak; looseth 
those that are bound; supporteth the fallen; and raiseth 
up those who drop; and therefore, thee alone do we worship. 
Although our mouths were filled with melodious songs, as 
the drops of the sea; our tongues with shouting, as the 
roaring billows thereof; our lips with praise, like the wide- 
extendet firmament; our eyes with sparkling brightness, 
like the sun and moon; our hands extended like the tower- 
ing eagles; and our feet as the hinds for swiftness; we, ne- 
vertheless, are incapable of rendering sufficient thanks unto | 
thee, O Lord, our God ! and the God of our fathers ; or ' 
to bless thy name, for one of the innumberable benefits which 
thou hast confered on us and our ancestors. For .thou, 
Lord, our God, didst redeem us from Egypt, and release us 
from the house of bondao-e; in time of famine didst thou 
sustain us; and in plenty didst thou nourish us. Thou 
didst deliver us from te Svford; saved us from pestilence; 
and from many sore and heavy diseases, hast thou with- 
drawn us. Hitherto thy tender mercies have suported us, 
and thy kindness hath not forsaken us. Lord, our God!

thou hast formed us, the spirit and soul which thou hast 
breathed into us, and the tongue thou hast placed in our

equal unto thee ? w^ho can be compared unto thee] great, 
mighty and tremendous God ! most high God ! possessor of 
heaven and earth ! We will praise, adore, glorify, and bless 
thy name; so saith David— Bless the Lord, Omy soul! and 
all that is within me, bless his holy name. 

O God ! who art mighty in thy strength ! who art great 
by thy glorious name ! mighty for ever, tremendous by thy 
fearful acts. The King! who sitteth on the high and ex- 
alted throne, inhabiting eternity, most exalted, and holy is 
his name, and it is written, rejoice in the Lord, O ye right- 
eous, for to the just, praise is comely. With the mouth of 
the upright shalt thou be praised ; blessed with the lips of 
the righteous ; extolled with the tongue of the pious ; by a 
choir of saints shalt thou be sanctified. 

And in the congregation of many thousands of thy people, 
the house of Israel, shall thy name, O our King! be glorified 
in song, throughout all generations ; for such is the duty

171 SABBATH MORNING SERVICE 

All beings give thanks unto thee ; they all praise thee ; 
and every one declares that there is none holy like the Lord. 
Thej all extol thee for ever, O thou who formesfc all things. 
O God ! who daily openest the portals of the gates of the 
east, and cieavest the windows of the firmament ; bringest 
forth the sun from its place, and the moon from the place of 
its residence, and enlightenest the Universe, and all its in- 
habitants, which thou didst create according to thy attribute 
of mercy. Thou, who with mercy illuminate the earth and 
those w^io dwell therein ; and in thy goodness every day 
constantly renewest the w^ork of the creation. Thou art the 
only King to be extolled, praised, glorified, and exalted, ever 
since the creation. Thou art the everlasting God ! in thine 
abundant mercy, have compassion on us , Lord ! thou art 
our strength, the rock of our fortress, the shield of our sal- 
vation, be thou our defence. There is none to be compared 
with thee ; nor is there any besides thee ; there is no other 
save thee, and who is like unto thee ? There is none to be 
compared with thee, Lord, our God! in this world; nor is 
there any besides thee, O our King ! in a future state. There 
is no other save thee, our Redeemer ! in the days of the 
Messiah ! and who will be like thee, our saviour ! at the 
resurrection of dead ] 

God is the Lord of all productions ; he is praised and ado- 
red by the mouth of every soul breathing ; his power and 
goodness fill the Universe. Knowledge and understanding 
encircle him, who exalteth himself above the angels, ar;d is 
adorned w^ith glory on his heavenly seat. Purity and recti- 
tude are before his throne ; kindness and mercy complete 
his glory. The luminaries which our God created are goodl 
for he formeth them with knowledge, understanding, and 
wisdom ; he hath endued them wath power and might, to 
bear rule in the world. They are filled with splendour and

radiate brightness ; their splendour in graceful throughout 
the world. They rejoice when going forth, and are glad at 
their return ; and with reverential awe perform the will of 
their Creator; they ascribe glory and majesty to his name, 
joy and song to the commemoration of his kingdom. He 
called the sun, and it rose in resplending light ; at his look 
the moon assumed its varying form. The whole heavenly 
host ascribe praise unto him ; the seraphim, ophanim, and 
holy angels, ascribe glory and majesty. 

We will give praise to God, who rested from all his works 
on the seventh day ; he exalteth himself, and sat on his ma- 
jestic throne. With honor did he adorn the day of rest, 
and called the Sabbath-day a dny of delight. This is the 
glory of the seventh day : the Omnipotent rested thereon 
from all his work ; and the seventh day therefore praiseth 
itself with a psalm and song for the Sabbath. Therefore all 
whom God hath formed, shall glorify and bless him ; they 
shall ascribe praise, honor, and glory unto the King who 
hath formed all things ; and who through his holiness caus- 
eth his people Israel to inherit rest on the holy Sabbath. 
Thy name, Lord, our God! shall be sanctified, and thy 
memorial, O our King! be glorified in the heavens above and 
on the earth beneath, for all the praiseworthy works of thy 
hands, and for the bright luminaries which thou hast form- 
ed ; they shall glorify thee for ever. Be thou blessed, O our 
Former! our King? our Redeemer! the Creator of holiness, 
be thy name praised for ever. O our King! who formed 
ministers all which minister unto thee, standing in the heights 
of the Universe, who cause their voices to be heard with 
terror together, with words to thee who art the living God, 
and everlasting King for ever. They are all lovely, all

earth, and conductest us with uprightness to our land, for thou 
art Almighty that workest salvation. Thou hast preferred 
us from among all people and languages, and put us near 
unto thy great name (Selah), for ever with truth to give 
praise unto thee, and to be united unto thee with love. 
Blessed art thou, OLord! who hast chosen his people Israel 
with love.

Blessed be the name of the glory of bis kingdom for evermore.

thine heart. And thou shalt teach them diligently 
unto thy children and shalt talk of them when thou sittest 
in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when 
thou liest down, and when thou risest up. And thou shalt 
bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as 
frontlets between thine eyes* And thou shalt write them 
upon the door-posts of thy house and on thy gates. 

And it shall come to pass, if ye shall hearken diligently 
unto my commandments, which I command you this day, to 
love the Lord your God, and to serve him with all your heart 
and with all your soul. That I will give you the rain of 
your land in its due season, the first rain and the latter rain, 
that thou mayest gather in thy corn, thy wine, and thine oil. 
And I will send grass in thy fields for thy cattle, that thou 
mayest eat and be full. Take heed to yourselves that your 
heart be not deceived, and ye turn aside and serve other 
gods, and worship them. And then the Lord's wrath be 
kindled against you, and he shut up the heaven that there 
be no rain, and that the land yield not her fruit; and lest 
ye perish quickly from off the good land which the Lord 
giveth you. Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in 
your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon 
your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes. 
And ye shalt teach them your children, speaking of them 
when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by 
the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up. 
And tliou shalt write them upon the door-posts of thine 
house, and upon thy gates. That your days may be multi- 
plied, and the days of your children, in the land which the 
Lord swore unto your fathers to give them, as the days of 
heaven upon the earth.

And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying, speak unto the 
children of Israel, and bid them that they make them fringes 
in the borders of their garments, throughout their gene- 
rations, and that they put upon the fringe of the borders a 
ribband of blue. And it shall be unto you for a fringe, 
that ye may look upon it, and remember all the command- 
ments of the Lord, and do them : that ye seek not after your 
own heart, and your own eyes, after which ye use to go 
astray : that ye may remember and do all my command- 
ments, and be holy unto your God. I am the Lord your 
God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your 
God : I am the Lord your God. 

True and certain, established, sure, just, faithful, beloved, 
esteemed, desirable and pleasant, awful, mighty, regular, 
acceptable, good and beautiful, is this word unto us for ever- 
more. It is true, the God of the Universe is our King! the 
rock of Jacob is the shield of our salvation; from generation 
to generation he abides eternal, and his name is eternal : 
His thfcna also is established, and his kingdom and faith- 
fulness is everlasting. His words are living and eternal ! 
they are faithful and desirable, throughout all ages forever- 
more. They were so with our Fathers, and so with us, and 
will be with our posterity: with our generations, and with 
all the generations of the seed of Israel, thy servants, both 
the first and the last. It is all a good and sure word for ever, 
spoken in truth and faithfulness, and is a statute that shall 
not pass away. It is true, that thou art the Lord our God ! 
and the God of our fathers ; our King, and the King of our 
fathers; our Redeemer, and the Redeemer of our fathers; 
our Rock, and the Rock of our salvation. Our Redeemer

and Deliverer; this is thy name from everlasting; there is 
no other God besides thee. 
. Thou, Lord ! hast been the help of our fathers from 
everlasting ; a Shield and a Saviour unto their children af- 
ter them throughout all generations. Thy throne is the in- 
visible height of the Universe, and thy judgments and right- 
'eousness extend unto the remotest boundaries of the earth, 
j Happy is that man who hearkeneth unto thy commandments, 
'and layeth up thy law and word in his heart. Verily, thou 
'art the Lord of thy people, and a mighty King to plead their 
cause. Indeed, thou art the first and thou art the last, 
and besides thee, we have neither King, Redeemer, nor 
Saviour. O Lord our God ! thou didst redeem us from 
Egypt, and didst deliver us from the house of bondage. 
All their first-born didst thou slay, but thy first-born didst 
thou redeem ; thou didst divide the Red Sea, but drown- 
edst the proud; thy beloved people passed through the 
sea, but the waters covered their enemies, so that not 
one of them escaped. For this, the beloved praised and 
glorified thee, God ! and the dearly beloved uttered psalms, 
songs, and praises ; blessings and thanksgivings unto thee, 
O King! living and eternal God! high and exalted, great 
and tremendous ; he who casteth down the proud, and exalt- 
eth the humble, who delivereth prisoners, redeemeth the 
meek, and helpeth the poor : and who answereth his people 
when they supplicate him. Praise be to the most high God, 
blessed and ever blessed be he — Moses, and the children of 
Israel, sang a song unto thee with great joy and they all 
said : 

Who is like unto thee, O Lord ! among the mighty ? Who 
is like thee, glorious in holiness, tremendous in praises, work- 
in^ miracles?

Those that were redeemed, sang anew song unto thy great 
name ; upon the sea-shore, they all unanimously praised and 
acknowledged thee. King! and said, the Lord shall reign for 
ever and ever ! 

Thou strong rock of Israel, rise in assistance unto Israel, 
and relieve according to thy promise Judah and Israel. As 
for our Redeemer, the Lord of Hosts in his name, the holy 
One of Israel. Blessed art thou, O Lord! the Redeemer of 
Israel. 

O Lord ! open thou my lips and my mouth shall declare 
thy praise. 

Blessed art thou, OLord! our God, and the God of our 
fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God 
of Jacob, the great God! powerful and tremendous, the most 
high God ! bountifully dispensing benefits, the Creator of all 
things; who remembering the piety of the fathers, will send 
a Redeemer to their posterity for his'name's sake in love. 

Remember us unto life, O King! thou who delighteth in 
life, and write us in the book of life for thy sake, O Godof life. 

O King, thou art our Supporter, Saviour, and Protector. 
Blessed art thou, O Lord! the shield of Abraham. 

Thou, O Lord! art for ever powerful; thou restorest life 
to the dead, and art mighty to save. 

{In winter^ add^ causing the wind to blow, and the rain 
to descend.) 

Sustaining by thy benevolence the living, and by thine 
abundant mercies animating the dead ; supporting those that 
fall, healing the sick, setting at liberty those that are in 
bonds; and performeth thy faithful words unto those that 
sleep in the dust. Who is like unto thee, O Lord ! most migh- 
ty '? or who may be compared with thee? the King who killeth 
and again restoreth life, and causeth salvation to flourish.

Who is like unto thee, most merciful Father ! who remem- 
bereth his creatures to life. 

Thou art also faithful to revive the dead. Blessed art 
thou, Lord, who revivest the dead. 

Thou art holy, and holy is thy name, and the saints praise 
thee daily. Selah. Blessed art thou, Lord, holy God! 



Read. We will sanctify thy name in the world, as thy 
sanctifiers in the heavens above; as it is written by the 
hands of thy prophet, and one called unto another and said : 
Cong. Holy, Holy, Holy, O Lord of Hosts ! the whole earth 
is full of his glory. Then with a great, mighty, strong and 
impetuous sound, they cause their voice to be heard ; and 
raising themselves on high towards the seraphim they jointly 
proclaim, blessed is the glory of the Lord, from the place of 
his residence. Shine forth from thy place, our King ! and 
reign over us, as we hope in thee. When wilt thou reign in 
Zion? Speedily in our days inhabit it for ever and ever. 
Thou shalt be exalted and sanctified in the midst of Jeru- 
salem, thy city, throughout all generations, and all eternity. 
May our eyes behold thy kingdom, according to the word 
that is written in thy mighty songs, by the hands of David. 
tby righteous anointed. 

The Lord shall reign for ever: thy God, Zion ! unto all 
generations. Hallelujah!

Moses was happy with the lot assigned him ; thou didst 
call him thy faithful servant, and didst crown his head with 
gracefulness ; thus he stood before thee on mount Sinai, he 
descended with two tables of stone in his hand, on which was 
written the commandment for the observance of the sabbath: 
and thus is written in thy law: 

And the children of Israel shall keep the sabbath, observ- 
ing the sabbath throughout their generations for a perpetual 
covenant. It is a sign between me and the children of Israel 
for ever ; for in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, 
and on the seventh day he rested and was refreshed. 

Thou, Eternal, our God ! didst not bestow it (the sab- 
bath) on the other nations of the earth ; neither didst thou, 
O our King ! make it the heritage of those who worship idols. 
The wicked do not enjoy its repose : in love hast thou be- 
stowed it on thy people Israel; even the posterity of Jacob, 
whom thou hast chosen ; the people, who sanctify the seventh 
day, shall all be satisfied and delighted with thy goodness; 
for thou wast pleased with, and didst sanctify the seventh 
day ; the most desirable of days didst thou call it in com- 
memoration of the work of the creation. 

Our God, and the God of our fathers, we beseech thee to be 
pleased with our day of rest. O sanctify us with thy com- 
mandments, and let thy law be our portion. satisfy us 
with thy goodness ; rejoice our souls with thy salvation ; and 
purify our hearts to serve thee in truth : and cause us, O 
Lord, our God! to inherith thy holy sabbath with love and 
djlight, and grant, that all Israel, who sanctify thy name, 
may have rest thereon. Blessed art thou, Lord! who 
sanctifieth the sabbath. 

Graciously accept, O Lord! our God! thy people Israel, 
aiid have regard unto their prayers. Restore the service to

201 SABBATH MORNING SERVICE 

Praise ye the name of the Lord ! for his name alone is 
exalted. His glory is above the earth and the heavens ; he 
will also exalt the horn of his people, the praise of all saints : 
over the children of Israel, a people near unto him. Hall- 
elujah. 

A Psalm of David. — Ascribe unto the Lord, ye sons 
of the mighty, ascribe glory and might unto the Lord. 
Ascribe unto the Lord the glory due unto his name ; worship 
the Lord in holy attire. . The voice of the Lord is upon 
the waters ; the God of glory thundereth ; the Lord is upon 
many waters. The voice of the Lord is powerfull ; the 
voice of the Lord is full of majesty. The voice of the 
Lord breaketh in pieces the cedars ; yea, the Lord breaketh 
the cedars of Lebanon. He also maketh them skip like a 
calf: Lebanon and Siryon like young unicorns; the voice 
of the Lord cleaveth the flames of fire ; the voice of the Lord 
shaketh the wilderness; the Lord shaketh the wilderness 
of Kadesh. The voice of the Lord causeth the hinds to 
c^ive, and maketh bare the forests ; and in his temple all 
speak of his glory. The Lord sitteth on the flood : yea, the 
Lord sitteth King for ever. The Lord giveth strength unto 
his people ; the Lord will bless his people with peace. ^ 

'^And when the ark rested, he said : Restore tranquillity f 
to the many thousands of Israel. Arise, O Lord! unto thy 
resting-place, thou, and the ark of thy strength. Let thy 
priests be clothed with righteousness, and let thy saints 
shout for joy. For thy servant David's sake, turn not away 
the face of thine anointed. For a good instruction I have 
given you ; forsake ye not my law. It is a tree of life to 
those who lay 'hold of it; and the supporters thereof are 
happy. Its ways are ways of pleasantness, and all its paths 
are peace. Cause thou us, O Lord ! to return unto thee, 
and we shall return ; renew our days as of old.

[203 SABBATH MORNING SERVICE 

A Psalm of David. — The earth, and the fulness thereof 
are the Lord's; the world, and they that dwell therein. For 
he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon 
the floods. Who shall ascend the mountain of the Lord 1 
and who shall stand in his holy place? He who is clean of 
hands, and pure of heart; who hath not lifted up his soul 
unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully. He shall receive a bless- 
ing from the Lord, and righteousness from the God of his 
salvation. This is the generation, who seek him, who seek 
thy face, Jacob. Selah. Raise your heads, ye gates! 
and be raised wide, ye everlasting doors, and let the King 
of Glory enter. Who is the King of the Glorj^ ? The Lord, 
strong and powerful ; the Lord, mighty in battle. Raise 
your heads, O ye gates ! and be raised wide, ye everlasting 
doors, and let the King of Glory enter. Who is this King 
of Glory] the Lord of Host ! he is the King of Glory. Selah. 



ADDITIONAL SERVICE FOR SABBATH. 

O Lord! open thou my lips and my mouth shall declare 
thy praise. 

Blessed art thou, Lord! our God, and the God of our 
fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God 
of Jacob, the great God! powerful and tremendous, the most 
high God! bountifully dispensing benefits, the Creator of all 
things; who remembering the piety of the fathers, will send 
a Redeemer to their posterity for his name's sake in love. 

Rem3mber us unto life, O King! thou who deligliteth in 
life, and write us in the book of life for thy sake, Godoflife. 

King, thou art our Supporter, Saviour, and Protector, 
Blessed art thou, Lord ! the shield of Abraham.

Thou , O Lord ! art for ever powerful ; thou restores t life' 
to the dead, and art mighty to save. 

(Causing the wind to hlow, an the rain to descend.) 
abundant mercies animating the dead; supporting those that 
fall, healing the sick, setting at liberty those that are in bonds; 
and performeth thy faithful words unto those that sleep in 
the dust. Who is like unto thee, Lord ! most mighty? 
or who may be compared with thee? the King who killeth 
and again restereth life, and causeth salvation to flourish. 

Who is like unto thee, most mexiful Father! who remem- 
bereth his creatures to life. 

Thou art also faithful to revive the dead. Blessed art 
thou, O Lord, who revivest the dead.

207 ADDITIONAL SERVICE FOR THE SABBATH 

Thou hast established the sabbath, and favorably ac- 
cepted its offerings, and commanded its explanations, and 
the order of its drink-off'erings. They who delight in it 
(the sabbath) shall inherit everlasting glory ; they who per- 
ceive its happiness merit Eternal life; and also they who 
love its ordinances have chosen greatness. Long ago, even 
from mount Sinai, where they commanded concerning it; 
and the Eternal, our God ! did command us to offer thereon 
the additional service of the sabbath, according to its pro- 
per form. may it be acceptable in thy presence to con- 
duct us with joy to our own land, and plant us in our own 
borders ; that we may there in thy presence, prepare the 
offerings incumbent on us ; even the daily offerings accord- 
ing to their order; and the additional offerings according 

ADDITIONAL SERVICE FOR THE NEW MOON 

Thou hast formed thy world of old, and completed thy 
work on the seventh day. Thou hast loved us, favored us, 
and exalted us above all languages ; and sanctified us with 
thy commandments, and brought us near unto thy service, 
O our King! and hast called us by thy great and holy name ; 
in love hast thou also given us, Lord, our God! 
sabbaths fcr rest, and the beginning of months for atone- 
ment. And because we sinned against thee, Lord our 
God! and the God of our f;ithers, our city hath been made 
desolate, and our sanctuary laid waste ; our honor carried 
captive, and the divine glory removed from our holy temple ; 
so that we are unable to worship thee duly, in the house 
w^hich thou hast chosen, even in the great and holy house, 
which is called by thy name, because of the hand which 
hath been stretched out against thy sanctuary. May it be 
acceptable in thy presence, Lord our God ! and the God 
of our fathers, to conduct us with joy unto our own land,

2£9 SABBATH AFTERNOON SERVICE — 

Thy rlgliteousness is everlasting i-igbteousness , and thy 
law is truth: thy righteousness also, God! is exceeding 
high ; for thou hast done great things. God! who is like 
unto thee 1 Thy righteousness is exalted as the mighty 
mountains ; thy judgments profound as the vast abyss ! for 
thou, Lord ! savest man and beast. 

Bless the Lord, my soul ! Lord, my God ! thou art 
exceeding great, with honor and majesty art thou clothed. 
Who covereth himself with light, as with a garment: who 
stretched out the heavens like a curtain. Who layeth the 
beams of his chambers in the waters, who maketh the clouds 
his chariots, who walketh upon the wings of the wind. He 
maketh his messengers spirits ; his ministring . angels a 
flaming fire. He hath founded the earth on its basis, so that 
it can never be moved. Thou didst cover it with the deep, 
as with a garment : the waters stood above the mountains. 
At thy rebuke they fled: at the voice of thy thunder they 
hasted away. They ascend the mountains : they descend 
through the vallies unto the place thou hast founded for them. 
Thou hast set a bound that they may not pass : that they 
return not to cover the earth. Who sendeth the springs 
into the vallies, which run between the hills. They give 
drink to every beast of the field: the wild assess quench 
their thirst. By them the fowls of the heavens have their 
habitation, they sing among the branches. He watereth the 
hills from his chambers; the earth is satisfied with the fruit 
of thy works. He causeth grass to grow for the cattle, and 
herb for the service of man : that he may bring forth food 
from the earth. And wine that gladdeneth the heart of 
man, oil that brighteneth his face, and bread which streng.- 
theneth the heart of man. The trees of the Lord are full 
of sap : the cedars of Lebanon which he hath planted.

231 SABBATH AFTERNOON SERVICE 

Wherein the birds make their nests : as for the stork, the 
fir-trees are her house. The high hills are a refuge for the 
wild goats, and the rocks for the conies. He appointed the 
moons for seasons ; the sun knoweth his going down. Thou 
causest darkness, and it is night : wherein all the beasts of 
the forest creep forth. The young lions roar after their 
prey, and seek their meet from God. The sun ariseth, they 
gather themselves together, and lie down in their dens. Man 
goeth forth to his work, and to his labor until the evening. 
How manifold are thy w^orks, O Lord ! in wisdom hast thou 
made them all : the earth is full of thv riches. So is this 
great and wide sea, wherein are inumerable living creatu- 
res, both small and great. There the ships make their 
way : there also is that leviathan which thou hast formed 
to sport therein. These all wait upon thee, that thou 
mayest give them their meat in due season. They gather 
that which thou providest for them : thou openest th}'' hand, 
they are filled with good. When thou hidest thy ftace, they 
are troubled: thou takest away their breath, they die, and 
return to their dust. But thou sendest forth thy spirit ; 
they are created : thou also renewest the face of the earth ! 
The glory of the Lord shall endure for ever : the Lord shaU 
rejoice in his works. When lie looketh on the earth, it trem- 
bleth : he toucheth i\\Q hills and they smoke. Therefore 
will I sing unto the Lord whilst I live : I will sing praise 
unto my God Avhile I exist. May my meditation be accept- 
able to him : I will rejoice in the Lord. May the sinners 
be consumed out of the earth, and the wicked be no more. 
O my soul, bless thou the Lord. Hallelujah ! 

A Song of Degreks. — In my distress I cried unto the 
Lord, and he heard me. O Lord ! deliver my soul from 
false lips, and a deceitful tongue. What gain shall acciue 
to thee] or what shall it profit thee, thou deceitful tongue?

233 SABBATH AFTEBNOON SERYXCK 

For it is sliarp as arrows of the mighty, and ardent as the 
coals of juniper trees. Woe is me, that I sojourn in Mes- 
ech, that I dwell in the tents of Kedar. My soul hath long 
dwelt with those who hate peace. I am for peace, but when 
I speak they are for war. 

A Song of Degrees. — Shall I lift up mine eyes unto the 
hills ? Whence should my help come? My help is from 
the Lord, who made heaven and earth. He will not suflFer 
thy foot to slip, neither will thy keeper slumber. Behold, 
the Guardian of Israel shall neither sleep nor slumber. The 
Lord is thy guardian : the Lord is thy shade; he is on thy 
right hand. So that the sun shall not strike thee by day, 
nor the moon by night. The Lord shall guard thee from 
all evil; he will preserve thy soul. The Lord shall guard 
thy going out, and thy coming in, from henceforth and for 
evermore, 

A Song of Degrees of David. — I rejoiced when they 
said unto me, let us go into the house of the Lord. Our 
feet stood within thy gates, O Jerusalem. Even Jerusalem 
which is built as a city of assembla;::;e. Whither the tribes 
go up, the tribes of the Lord, a testimony unto Israel, for 
them to give thanks unto the name of the Lord. For there, 
thrones of judgment are set; thrones for the house of 
David. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem ; they that love 
thee shall prosper. May there be peace within thy walls, 
and prosperity within thy places. For the sake of my 
brethren and friends, I Avill now say, peace be within thee. 
For the sake of the house of the Lord, our God, will I seek 
thy good. 

A Song of Degrees. — Unto thee I lift up mine eyes, 
O thou who dwellest in heaven. Behold, as the eyes of ser- 
vants look unto the hand of their masters, and the eyes of

a maiden unto the hand of her mistress, so our eyes wait 
upon the Lord our God, until he be gracious unto us. Have 
mercy on us, Lord ! have mere) on us ; for we are over- 
whelmed with contempt. Our soul is <)verwhelmed with the 
scorn of those who are at ease and the contempt of the proud. 

A Song of Degress of David. — Israel may now say, 
but for the Lord, who was on our side ; but for the Lord, 
who was on our side, when men rose up against us i they had 
swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against 
us. Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had 
gone over our soul. Then the imperious waves had gone 
over our soul. Blessed be the Lon^, who hath not given 
us as a prey to their teeth. Our soul hath escaped as a bird 
out of the fowler's snare; the snare is broken, and we are 
escaped. Our help is in the name of the Lord, who made 
heaven and earth, 

A Song of Degrees. — They that trust in the Lord shall 
be firm as mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but is 
established for ever. As the mountains encircle Jerusalem, 
the Lord shall encircle his people from henceforth, and for 
ever. For the rod of the wicked shall not rest on the lot of 
the righteous : that the righteous put not forth their hands 
to iniquity. Do good, O Lord ! unto the good, and to those 
who are upright in their hearts. And they who turn aside 
unto their crooked ways, the Lord shall lead them forth with 
the workers of iniquity ; but peace shall be on Israel. 

A Song of Degrees, — When the Lord turneth the cap- 
tivity of Zion, we were like those who are awakened from a 
dream. Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our 
tongue with song. They then said among the nations, the 
Lord hath wrought great things for them. The Lord 
Irit I wrought great things for us; for which we rejoice. 
Turn our captivity, Lord ! as the streams of the south.

They who sow in tears, shall reap with joy. He who goeth 
forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless 
come again with rejoicing bearing home his sheaves. 

A Song of Degrees of Solomon. — Except the Lord 
build the house, the builders labor on it in vain; except the 
Lord keep the city, the sentinel watchet in vain. It is in 
vain for us to rise up early, to sit up late, and to eat the 
bread of sorroAV, whilst his beloved sleep in peace. Lo ! 
children are a heritage of the Lord ; and the fruit of the 
womb is his reward. The children of youth are as powerful 
an aid, as arrows in the hands of a mighty man. Happy is 
the man whose quiver is filled with such: they shall not be 
ashamed, but shall contend with his enemies in the gate. 

A Song of Degrkes. — Blessed is every one who feareth 
the Lord : who walketh in his ways. For thou shalt eat the 
labor of thy hands : then happy shalt thou be, and it shall be 
well with thee. Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine encircling 
thine house: thy children like olive plants round thy table. 
Behold! thus shall the man be blessed who feareth the Lord. 
The Lord shall bless the from Zion; and thou shalt see the 
good of Jerusalem all the days of thy life: yea, thou shalt 
see thy children's children, and peace on Israel. 

A Song of Degrees. — From my youth have they greatly 
afflicted me, may Israel now say. From my youth have they 
greatly afflicted me; yet have they not prevailed against 
me. The ploughers have ploughed upon my back: they 
made their furrows long. The Lord is righteous: he hath 
cut as under the cords of the wicked. Let all who hate 
Zion be confounded, and frustrated in their desings. Let 
them be as grass upon the house-tops, which withereth be- 
fore its maturity. Wherewith the mower fiUeth not his 
hand; nor he who bindeth sheaves his lay. Neither do they

unto thee, Lord. O Lord ! hearken unto my voices let 
thine ear be attentive to the voice of my supplication. ]f 
thou, O Lord! shouldest mark iniquities, Lord, who shall

mayest be feared. I wait for the Lord, my soul doth wait 
on him, and in his word do I hope. My soul waiteth for 
the Lord, more then those who anxiously watch for the 
morning. Let Israel hope in the Lord : for mercy is with 
the Lord, and abundant redemption with him. And he will 
redeem Israel from all his iniquities. 

A Song of Degrees of David. — Lord! my heart is 
not haughty, nor mine eyes lofty ; neither do I exercise my- 
self in matters too great and wonderful for me. Did I not 
behave quietly as a chield that is weaned of his mother 7 my 
soul is even as a weaned child. Let Israel hope in the Lord 
from henceforth, and for ever. 

A Song of Degrees. — Lord ! remember David, and 
all bis afflictions. How he sware un-to the Lord, and vowed 
unto the mighty God of Jacob, saying, surely I will not 
come into the tabernacle of my house, nor ascend my couch 
of repose. I will not give sleep to mine eyes, nor slumber 
to mine eye-lids, until I find a place for the Lord, an habi- 
tation for the mighty God of Jacob. Lo! we heard of it at 
Ephratah; we found it m the fields of the wood. We will 
enter his tabernacles; we will worship at his footstool. 
Arise, O Lord! thou and the ark of thy strength, and with 
thy presence grace the place formed for thy residence. Let 
thy priests be clothet with righteousness: and let thy saints 
shout for joy. For the servant David's sake, turn not away

the face of thine anointed. The Lord hath sworn unto 
David, in truth he will not turn from it : of the fruit of thy 
body will I set upon thy throne. If thy children will keep 
this mj covenant and ray testimony, which I shall teach 
them, their children shall sit upon thy throne for evermore. 
For the Lord hat chosen Zion : he hath desired it for his 
habitation. There is my rest for ever: }:ere will I dwell, 
for I have desired it. I will surely bless her provisions : her 
poor will I satisfy Avith bread. I will also clothe her priests 
with salvation: and her saints shall shout for joy. There 
will I cause the horn of David to bud; for there have I 
prepared a lamp for mine anointed. His enemies will I 
clothe wit shame, but on him his crown shall flourish. 

A Song of Degrees of David. — Behold! how good and 
how pleasant it is, for brethren to dwell together in unity. 
It is like the precious ointment upon the head, which ran 
down upon the beard, even Aaron's beard, and from thence 
went down the skirts of his garments. As the dew of Her- 
mon, and as the dew w^hich descended on the mountains of 
Zion ! for there the Lord hath commanded the blessing, even 
life for evermore. 

A Song of Degrees.— Behold, bless ye the Lord, all 
ye servants of the Lord, w^ho nighty stand in the house of 
the Lord. lift up your hands in the sanctuary, and bless 
the Lord, The Lord who made heaven and earth shall bless 
from Zion.

THE ETHICS. 

All Israel have a portion in the future world ; as is said, 
and thj people shall be righteous ; forever shull they possess 
the land ; the cion of my planting , the work of my hands, 
that I may be glorified. 

CHAPTER I. 

Moses received the law from Sinai , and delivered it to 
Joshua ; and Joshua to the elders, and the elders to the pro- 
phets; and the prophets to the men of the great Synagogue. 
They said three things : ^' be deliberate in judgment; train 
up many disciples ; and make a fence for the law.'^ — 
Simon, the Just, was the last of the men of the great Syna- 
gogue. He used to say, that the world existed by virtue of 
three things, viz : the law, the temple service, and acts of 
beneficence. Antigonos of Socho, received the oral law from 
Simon the just. He used to say, be not like servants who 
serve their master for the sake of receiving a reward : but 
be like servants who serve their master without a view of 
receiving a reward, and let the fear of heaven be upon you. 
Jose Ben Joezer, of Tseredah, and Jose Ben Jochanan, of 
Jerusalem, received the oral law from them. Jose Ben Joe- 
zer, of Tseredah said , let thy house be a house of assembly 
for wise men , dust thyself with the dust of their feet, and 
drink their words in thirstiness. Jose Ben Jochanan, of Jeru- 
salem, said, let thy house be wide open; and let the poor be 
thy domestic servants , and be not prone to much discourse 
with woman-kind : not even with thy wife, much less with thy

neighbour's wife; hence the wise men say, whoever conven- 
es much with women, bringeth evil on himself, and thus neg- 
lects the study of the law, and at last will inherit hell. Jo- 
shua Ben Perechiah, and Natai the Arbelite, received it from 
them. Joshua Ben Perechian said, prcoure thyself a master, 
and obtain an associate; and judge all mankind favorably. 
ISatai, the Abelite, said, withdraw from an evil neighbour, 
and associate not with the wicked ; neither flatter thyself to 
escape punishment. Juda Ben Tabai and Simeon Ben She- 
tach received it of them : Judah Ben Tabai said, cosider not 
thyself as the arranger of the law, and when the parties are 
before thee in judgment, consider them as guilty: but when 
they are departed from thee, consider them as innocent, 
when they have acquiesced in the sentence. Simeon Ben 
Shetach said, be extremely careful in the examination of the 
witnesses, and be cautious in thy words, lest they from 
thence should learn to utter a falsehood. Shemaiah and Ab- 
talyon received it from them ; Shemaiah said, love th^ busi- 
ness, and hate dominion ; and thus make thyself not known 
to government. Abtalyon said, ye sages, be cautious of your 
words, lest ye be doomed to captivity, and carried captive to 

a place of infected waters and the disciples who follow you 
should drink of them, by which means the name of God may 
be profaned. Hillel and Shamai received it of them: Hillel 
said, be of the disciples of Aaron who loved peace, and pur- 
sued peace; so that thou love mankind, and allure them to 
the study of the law ; he used to say, whoever is ambitious of 
aggrandizing his name, destroys his name : and who doth not

increase his knowledge in the law, shall be cut of: and who 
doth not study the law, is deserving of death ; and he who ser- 
ves himself with the crown of the law, will be consumed. He 
also said, if I perform not good works myself, who can do them 
for me? and when I fully consider myself, what am I? and 
if not now, Avhen shall 11 Shamai said, let thy study of the 
law be fixed : say little, and do much ; and receive all men 
with an open respectable countenance, Rabban Gamliel said, 
procure thyself an instructor, that thou mayest not be in 
doubt ; and accustom not thyself to give tythes by conjec- 
ture. Simeon his son said, I have all my life been brought 
up among the w^ise men, and never found any thing so salu- 
tary to the well being of the body, as silence : neither is the 
study of the law the principal, but the practice thereof: and 
whoever is profuse of words, causeth sin. Rabban Simeon 
Ben Gamliel said , the duration of the world depends on 
three things , viz : justice , truth , and peace ; as it is said, 
truth and the judgement of peace, shall be in your gates. 

Rabbi Chananya Ben Akashya said, thy blessed God was 
pleased to rendes Israel meritorious; he therefore multiplied 
the law and the precepts ; as it is said, the Lord was pleased 
for his righteousness sake, to magnify the law and adorn it. 

CHAPTER ir. 

Rabbi saith, which is the most eligible path for man to 
make choice of? All such as are an ornament to those who 
tread therein; and procureth them honor from mankind. 
Be also as careful of the observance of a ligth precept, as a

"weighty one : because thou knowest not the due reward of 
the precepts: and balance the loss sustained by the non- 
performance of a precept against its recompence ; and the 
reward of sin against its loss of happiness. Consider also 
three things , and thou wilt not commit sin. Understand 
what is above thee : an all-seeing eye, and a hearing ear, 
and that all thine action are written in a book. Rabban 
Gamliel, the son of Rabbi Jiidah Hanase, said, that the stu- 
dy of the law and the commerce of the world are command- 
able together; as the conjunction of those two annihilates sin; 
and all study of the law, that is not supported by business, 
will become of non effect, and will be the cause of sin , and 
whoever is engaged in the service of the congregation, ought 
to act for God's sake ; then will the merit of their ancestors 
support them, and their charitable deeds exist to eternity; 
and 1 shall account ye deserving of a great recompence , as 
if ye had actually done it. Be ye warned of following prin- 
ces, (or courtiers) as they do not bestow favours on men, but 
for their own interest: they show themselves as friends, while 
they are useful to them : but will not support a man in time 
of need. He used to say, do his will, as if it was thine own 
will; that may accomplish thy will, is, as if it was his will ; 
abolish thy will for the sake of his will ; that he may abolish 
the will of other<=i for the sake of thy will. Hillel said, sepa- 
rate not thyself from the congregation: nor have confidence 
in thyself until the death. Judge not thy neighbour till thou 
art in his situation; neither utter a sentence, as if it was 
incomprehensible, that afterwards may be comprehended;

nor say, when I shall have leisure , I will study, lest thou 
shouldest not have leisure. He also said, a poor cannot be 
fearful of sin ; nor can a rustic be a saint : the bashful will 
not become learned , nor the passionate a teacher : neither 
will he who is much engaged in traffic become wise: and 
where there are no instructing men, strive thou to be a man. 
He having also seen a skull floating on the water, said, be- 
cause thou didst make others float , have they floated thee ! 
and the end of those who made thee float, will be, that they 
will also float. He also said, he who increaseth his flesh, mul- 
tiplieth food for worms : he w^ho multiplieth riches, augmen- 
teth care; he who multiplieth wives, increaseth witchcraft; 
he who multiplieth female servants, increaseth lewdness ; he 
who multiplieth men servants , increaseth robbery; but he 
who augmenteth his knowledge of the law, augmenteth life; 
he who augmenteth his study in college, increaseth wisdom ; 
he who multiplieth counsel, increaseth prudence: he who 
augmenteth justice, multiplieth peace: if he hath thus ac- 
quired a good name , he hath acquired it for himself; if he 
hath acquired the pure doctrine of the law, he hath obtain- 
ed for himself immortal life in a future state. Rabbi Jocha- 
nan Ben Zacchai, received it from Hillel and Shamai ; he 
frequently said, if thou hast spent much time in the study 
of the law, yet pride not thyself therein: for, fcr that only 
wast thou created. Rabbi Jochannan Ben Zacchai had five 
disciples; and these are thej^ : Rabbi Eleazer Ben Hyrcan- 
us, Rabbi Joshua Ben Chananya, Rabbi Jose the priest, 
Rabbi Simon Ben Nathaneal, Rabbi Eleazer Ben Arach. He

used thus to appreciate their merit, viz: Eleazer Ben Hyr- 
canus is as a well plastered pit, which loseth not a drop; 
Joshua Ben Chananye, happy are they who begat him; Jo- 
se the priest is a saint ; Simon Ben Nathaneal feareth sin ; 
Eleazar Ben Arach is a powerful spring. He used to say, if 
■all the sages of Israel were in one scale of the balance, and 
Rabbi Eleazer Ben Hyrcanus in the other, he would over- 
balance them all. Abba Saul said in his name, if all the 
sages of Israel were in one scale, and even Rabbi Eleazer 
Ben Hyrcanus with them, and Rabbi Eleazar Ben Arach in 
the other, he would overbalance them all. He also said to 
them, go forth, and consider which is the good path for man 
to adhere to. To this Rabbi Eleazer answered, a good eye; 
Rabbi Joshua said, a worthy associate; Rahbi Jose said, 
a good neighbour; Rabbi Simeon said, he who foresees the 
consequences of an undertaking; Rabbi Eleazer said, a be- 
nevolent heart. He then said unto them, I prefer the sen- 
timent of Rabbi Eleazer Ben Arach above your's, as his 
words include the whole of your's. He also said unto them, 
go forth, and consider which is the evil way that man should 
shun; to wich Rabbi Eleazer said, an evil eye; Rabbi Jo- 
shua said, an evil associate ; Rabbi Jose said, an evil neigh- 
bour; Rabbi Simeon said, he who borroweth, and payeth not: 
for when one borroweth of man, it is equal as if he borrowed 
from God : as it is said, the wicked borroweth, and payeth 
not again : but the righteous showeth kindness, and giveth; 
Rabbi Eleazer said, an evil heart. He then said unto them, 
I prefer the sentiment of Rabbi Eleazer Ben Arach a,bove 
5'our's, as his words include the whole of your's. Thoy 
also said three things : Rabbi Eleazer said, let the honor of 
thine associate be as dear to thee as thine own: and be not 
easily moved to anger : and repent one day preceding thy

desease: and warm thyself by the fire of the sages: but be 
careful that their coal doth not burn thee : for their bite is 
as the bite of a fox, and their sting as the sting of a scor- 
pion, and their burn as the burn of a fiery serpent; and all 
their words as fiery coals. Rabbi Joshua said, an evil eye, 
an evil immachination, and misanthropy, cause the death of 
man. Rabbi Jose said, let thine associate's property be as 
dear to the as thine own, prepare thyself to study the law, 
as it commeth not to thee by inheritance; and let all thine 
actions be in the name of God. Rabbi Simeon said, be care- 
ful of reading the Sheraang, and the other prayers : and 
when thou art praying, consider not thy prayer as ordinary, 
but as supplicating mercy in the presence of the Supreme: 
as it is said, for he is merciful and gracious, long-suffering 
and of adundant kindness, and re penteth of the evil : and 
deprecate not thyself in thine own mind. Rabbi Eleazer 
said, be expeditious to study the law, that thou mayest know 
how to confute the epicurean ; consider also, in whose presence 
thou art laboring, and in whose service thou art employed, 
who will pay thee the reward of thy labor. Rabbi Tarphon 
said, the day is short, but the labor is much, and the la- 
borers slothful: though the reward is great, and the mas- 
ter of the house presseth for dispatch. He used to say, it 
is not incumbent on thee to complete the work, neither art 
thou at liberty to abstain wholly from it: if thou hast dili- 
gently studied the law, you will receive great reward; for

ward of the righteous, is in a future state. 



CHAPTER III. 

Akabea Ben Mahalallel said, ponder on three things, 
and thou wilt not be Led to the commission of sin: consider 
from whence thou commest, and whither thou gost, and in 
whose presence thou must in futurity render an account in 
judgement. From whence cometh thou? from a foetid drop: 
and whither art thou going? to a place of dust, worms, and 
reptiles: and in whose presence art thou in futurity to ren- 
der an account in judgment? even before the Holy Supreme 
King of kings, blessed is he. Rabbi Chaneena, a priest of 
the second order said, pray for the peace of the kingdom, 
for were it not in deference thereof, men would swallow 
each other alive. Two who are sitting together, and have 
no discourse concerning the law, are accounted and assembly 
of scorners ; as is said, in the seat of the scorners do not 
sit. But two who sit together, and discourse of the law, 
the divine presence may be said to rest on them: as is said, 
then they who fear.^d the Lord spake everyone to his neigh- 
bour; and the Lord gave ear and heard: and a book of re- 
membrance \vas written before him; for them who feared 
the Lord: and for them who thought on his name. This 
refers to two ; but whence can we infer, that if but one sits 
engaged in the study of the law, that the holy blessed God 
will appoint him a reward? Because it is said, let him sit 
alone and be silent, because he has laid it upon him. Rabbi

19 THE ETHICS, CHAPTER III. 

Simeon said, three who have eaten at one table, and have 
not discoursed on the subject of the law, are to be consider- 
ed as if they had eaten of the sacrifices of idols; for it is 
said, for all their tables are full of vomit and filthiness, so 
that no place is free. But three who have eaten at one table, 
and have discoursed on the subject of the law, are consider- 
ed as if they had eaten at God's table; as it is said, and 
he said unto me, this is the table which is before the Lord. 
Rabbi Chaneena Ben Chacheenai said, he who walketh in 
(or all) the nigth, travelleth in the road alone, and turneth 
his heajt to vanity is guilty of the death of his own soul. 
Rabbi Nechunyah Ben Hakana said, whoever lays on him- 
self the yoke of the law, shall be relieved from the yoke of 
the kingdom, and the custom of the world : but whoever di- 
vests himself of the yoke of the law, shall he burdened with 
the yoke of the kingdom, and the custom of the world. 
Rabbi Chalaphta, an inhabitant of the village of Chananya, 
said, ten who are assembled together, and engaged in the 
study of the law, the Shechina presideth among them; as 
is said, God standeth in the congregation of the mighty. 
And hence it is inferred, that it is also so with five; because 
it is said, and hath founded his troop on (or above) the 
earth. And hence it is inferred, that it is likewise so with 
three; Because it is said, he judgeth among the judges. 
And hence it is inferred, that it is also thus with two; be- 
cause it is said, they who feared the Lord, spake every one 
to his neighbour ; and the Lord gave ear and heard. And

hence it is inferred, that it is likewise so with one; because 
it is said , in every place where I record my name , I will 
come unto thee, and I will bless thee. Rabbi Eleazar, an 
inhabitant of Barthota, said, give unto him (God) of his 
own: for thou, and all thou possessest, is his. And thus 
said David, for all things are from thee: and from the gift 
of thine hands have we given unto thee. Rabbi Jacob said 
he who journeyeth on the road , meditating on the law, and 
ceaseth therefrom, in order to admire this beautiful tree, 
or that handsome tillage , is considered in scripture , as en- 
dangering his life. Rabbi Dorsethai, the son of Jonai, in 
the name of Rabbi Myer, said, whoever forgetteth any 
thing of what he had obtained by study, is considered in 
scripture, as having endangered his life: as is said, only 
take heed to thyself, and guard thy soul diligently, lest 
thou forget the things which thine eyes have seen. Per- 
haps you may imagine, that even his study has been too 
powerful for him ? No : because it is said, and lest they be 
put away from thy heart all the days of thy life. Hence, 
he endangers not his life, till he deliberately removes them 
from his heart. Rabbi Chaneena Ben Dose, said, whoso- 
ever's fear of sin hath precedency of his wisdom, his wis- 
dom will be permanent; but whosoever's wisdom hath pre- 
cedency of his fear of sin, his wisdom will not be permanent. 
He also used to say, whosoever's good deeds exceed his wisdom, 
his wisdom will be permanent ; but he whose wisdom exceedeth 
his good deeds, his wisdom will not be permanent. He also

used to say, with whomsoever the spirit of mankind is gra- 
tified, the spirit of the Supreme is also gratified ; but with 
whomsoever the spirit of mankind is not gratified, the spi- 
rit of the Supreme is not gratified. Rabbi Dose Ben Har- 
chenas said, that, the morning sleep, wine at noon, the 
conversation of youth, and the assembly of the ignorant, 
take man out of the world. Rabbi Eleazer Hamodai said, 
he who profaneth the holy ofierings, despiseth the solemn 
feasts, put his neighbour to shame in public, maketh void 
the covenant of our father Abraham, and explaineth the law 
contrary to its true sense ; although he be well learned in 
the law, and possessed of good deeds^ yet hath he no share 
in the future state. Rabbi Ishmael said, be humble to thy 
superior and afi'able to thy inferior, and receive all mankind 
with joy. Rabbi Akeeba said, laughter and levity accus- 
tom mankind to lewdness ; tradition is a fence to the law ; 
tithes are a fence to riches ; vows are a fence to abstinence ; 
the fence to wisdom is silence. He used to say, man is be- 
loved, as he was created in the image of God ; but an ad- 
ditional love was shewn to him, in that he was created in 
the image of God ; as is said, in the image of God he made 
man. Beloved are Israel, in that they are called the chil- 
dren of God: but an additional love was shewn to them, in 
that they are actually called the children of God; as is 
said, ye are the children of the Lord your God. Beloved 
are Israel to whom was given the desirable vessel, where- 
with the world was created ; but an additional love was shewn 
unto themj that the desirable vessel wherewith the world was

created, was given unto them : as is said, for I give you good 
doctrine, therefore forsake ye not my law. Every thing is seen 
by providence, though freedom of choice is giving to man; the 
world is judged in goodness, though all is according to the 
multiplicity of the deed. He used to say, every thing is 
giving to man on security, and a net is spread over every 
living creature ; the shop is open, and the merchant credits ; 
the book is open, and the hand records ; and whosoever 
chooses to borrow, may come and borrow : for the collec- 
tors are continually going round daily, and obtain payment 
of man, whether with his consent, or without it ; as they 
have food authority to support them, and the judgment is 
true justice : and all are prepared for the feast. Rabbi 
Eleazer Ben Azarya said, if there is no knowledge of the 
law, there can be no good manners ; and if there is no man- 
ners, there certainly is no law : if there is no wisdom, there 
is no fear of God ; and if there is no fear, there is no wis- 
dom : if there is no understanding, there is no knowledge ; 
and if there is no knowledge, there is no understanding : if 
there is ro meal, there can be no study of the law : and if 
there is no law, there will be no meal. He used to say, to 
what may he be likened, whose wisdom exceedeth his good 
deeds 1 To a tree whose branches are multiplicious, and its 
roots scanty : so that the wind cometh, and plucketh it up, 
and overturneth it : as is said, for he shall be like a blasted 
tree upon the waste, which is not sensible when good cometh; 
but is continually exposed to scorching heats in the desert,

a barren land, and uninhabitable. But to what is he lite, 
whose good deeds exceed his wisdom? To a tree whose 
branches are few, and its roots multifarious ; so that if the 
most violent tempest discharges its fury against it, it will 
not be able to move it from its place ; as is said, for he shall 
be like a tree planted by the water side, which by the side 
of the stream sonde th forth its roots, and is not sensible when 
heat Cometh : but its leaf is green, and in a year of drought 
it is without concern, nor doth it decline bearing fruit. 
Rabbi Eleazer Ben Chisna said, the laws of the sacrifices 
of the doves, and the commencement of the mences, are im- 
portant constitutions : astronomy and geometry are the or- 
naments of wisdom. 



CHAPTER IV. 

Ben Zoma said, who is wise? he who is willing to receive 
instruction from ^ all men, as is said, of all my teachers I 
gathered understanding. Who is mighty? he who subdueth 
his evil imagination ; as is said, he Avho is slow to anger, is 
better than the mighty ; and he who ruleth his spirit, than 
he who taketh a city. Who is rich ? he who rejoiceth with 
his lot; as is said, for thou shalt eat the labor of thy 
hands ; then, happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with 
thee : happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with 
thee in the future one. Who is honorable? he who 
honoreth mankind; as is said, for they who honor me, 
I will honor ; and they who despise me shall be lightly 
esteemed. Ben Azai said, run to the performance of

the perfomance of a precept causeth another, and the com- 
mission of a sin causeth another sin ; as the reward of a com- 
mandment is another precept, and the reward of a sin is another 
cin. He used to say, despise not all men, nor oppose all things : 
for there is no man who hath not his hour, neither is there 
a thing that hath not its place. Rabbi Leveetas, an inhabit- 
ant of Jabna, said, be exceedingly humble of spirit, as all 
the hope of man is to be food for worms. Rabbi Johannan 
Ben Beroka said, whosoever profaneth God's name in secret, 
w^ill be punished publicly ; whether it be done ignorantly or 
presumtuously, it is all one in the profanation of God's 
name. Rabbi Ishmael said, he who learneth. that he may 
be able to teach others, will be enabled to study and to 
teach others ; but he who studieth in order to perform the 
precepts, will be enabled to study, teach, observe, and do 
the commandments. Rabbi Zadoc said, make not the study 
of the law subservient to thy aggrandizement; neither make 
a hatchet thereof, to hew therewith. And thus said Hillel, 
whosoever receiveth any profit (or emolument) from the 
words of the law, depriveth himself of life. Rabbi Jose 
said ; he who honoreth the law, shall be personally honored 
by mankind : but whosoever profaneth the law, shall 
be personally despised by mankind. Rabbi Ishmael said, 
he who avoids being a judge, delivereth himself from en-. 
mity, robbery, and false swearing: but he who is arrogant 
in judging, is a proud wicked fool. He used to say, judge

not singly by thyself for none ought to judge but One ; 
neither say authoritatively, receive ye my opinion, for they 
are at liberty to accept it, but thou canst not compel there. 
Rabbi Jonathan said, whosoever performeth the law in po- 
verty, shall in the end perform it in riches; but he Wfho 
neglects the law on account of riches will in the end neg- 
lect it on account of poverty. Rabbi Myer said, dimi- 
nish your worldly affairs and engage in the study of the 
law: and be humble spirited in the presence of all men; 
and if thou neglect the law, there are many hindrances to 
oppose thee : but if thou hast laboured in the study of the 
law there is much recompence to be given thee. Rabbi 
Eliazer, the son of Jacob, said, he who performeth but one 
precept, obtaineth for himself an advocate; and he who 
commits a single sin, procures himself an accuser : repen- 
tance and good deeds are a shield before the divine punish- 
ment. Rabbi Johannan the shoemaker said, every assembly 
that is formed for God's sake, will be permanent; but those 
which are not for God's sake will not be durable. Rabbi 
Eleazer Ben Shamuang said, let the honour of thy disciple 
be as dear to thee as thine owi^; and the honor of thy com- 
panions as the fear of thy master, and the fear of thy mas- 
ter as the fear of God. Rabbi Judah said, be careful in 
the study of the law, for the error of it is accounted as 
presumptuous sin. Rabbi Simeon said, there are three 
crowns : the crown of the law, the crown of the priesthood, 
and the crown of monarchy : but the crown of a good name 
is superior to all of them. Rabbi Nehoray said, flee to a 
glace where the law is studied, and do not say, that it will

follow thee: for thy associates will establish it for thee; 
and depend not on thine own understanding. Rabbi Yanai 
said, we experience not the prosperity of the wicked, nor 
the chastisements of the righteous. Rabbi Mathya Ben 
Charash said, be forward to greet all men : and be rather 
as the tail of the lion, than the head of the foxes. Rabbi 
Jacob said, this world may be likened to a court yard, in 
comparison with the future world : therefore prepare thyself 
in the anti-chamber, that thou mayest enter into the dining- 
room. He used to say, one hour employed in repentance 
and good deeds in this world, is preferable to the whole life 
in the future one : and one hour's refreshment of spirit in 
the future world, is preferable to the entire life of this. 
Rabbi Simeon Ben Eleazer said, attempt not to pacify your 
neighbor in the moment of his anger : and do not console 
him while his dead lyeth before him ; enquire not of him in 
the moment of his vowing ; nor be desirous of seeing him in 
the time of his calamity. The meek Saul used to say, re- 
joice not vfhen thine enemy falleth ; and let not thy heart 
be glad when he stumbleth : lest the Lord should see it, 
and it be evil in his sight, and he turn his wrath from him. 
Elisha Ben Abuya said, he who teaches a child, is like to 
one who writes on clean paper ; but he who teaches old 
people, is like to cne who writes on blotted paper. Rabbi 
Jose, the son of Judah, an inhabitant of a village near Ba- 
bylon, said, to what may he wholearneth the law from little 
children, be likened 1 To one who eateth sour grapes, and

drinketh new wine ; but he who learneth from the old men, 
may be compared to one who eats ripe grapes, and drinks 
old wine. Rabbi Myer said, look not at the flask, but that 
which is therein : for there are new flasks, full of old wine ; 
and old flasks which have not even new wine in them. Rabbi 
Eleazer Hakkapar said, envy, lust, and ambition, take 
men out of this world. He used to say, those who are 
born, are doomed to die, the dead to live, and they who are 
risen from the dead to be judged ; to make us know, un- 
derstand, and be informed, that he is God ; he is the For- 
mer, Creator, intelligent being, Judge, witness, and suing 
party: and who will judge thee hereafter, blessed be he; 
for in his presence there is no unrighteousness, forgetful- 
ness, respect of persons, nor acceptance of a bribe : for 
every thing is his. Know also, that every thing is done 
according to the account : and let not thine evil imagination 
persuade thee, that the grave is a place of refuge for thee : 
for against thy will wast thou formed , and against thy will 
wast thou born ; and against thy will dost thou live : and 
against thy will wilt thou die : and against thy will must 
thou hereafter render an account, and receive judgment in 
the presence of the supreme King of kings, the holy God, 
blessed is he.

With ten expressions the world was created : but where-

ions. There were ten generations from Adam to Noah ; to 
make us know that God is long-suffering ; as all those gene- 
rations provoked him before he brought the deluge upon 
them. There were ten generations from Noah to Abraham : 
to show us, that God is long-suffering : as all those succeed- 
iog generations provoked him, until Abraham appeared, 
and received the reward of all. Our father Abraham was 
proved with ten proofs: and in all of them he stood firm : 
and which shows how great the love of our father Abraham 
was towards God. Ten miracles were wrought for our an- 
cestors in Egypt, and ten at the Red Sea. Ten plagues 
did the blessed God inflict on the Egyptians in Egypt ; and 
ten at the Red Sea. Ten times did our ancestors tempt 
the blessed God, in the wilderness ; as is said, and have 
tempted me now these ten times, and have not hearkened 
unto my voice. Ten miracles were wrought for our ances- 
tors in the holy temple ; viz. no woman miscarried from the 
scent of the flesh of the sacrifices, neither did the flesh of 
the sacrifices ever stink : nor was a fly seen in the slaugh- 
ter-house : nor did an unclean accident happen to the high 
priest on the day of Atonement : neither did the rain 
extinguish the fire of the wood arranged on the altar; nor 
did the wind prevent the straight ascension of the pillar of 
smoke : neither was any defect found in the omer, the two 
loaves, and the shew bread. And although the people ^io(A 
close pressed together, yet when they worshipped, there 
was room suflScient : neither did a serpent , or scorpion in-

jure a person in Jerusalem: nor did a man say to his neigh- 
bour, I have not room to lodge in Jerusalem. Ten things 
were created on the eve of the sabbath, in the twilight; 
and these are they: the mouth of the earth, tie mouth of 
the ass, the mouth of the spring, the rainbow, the manna, 
the rod of Moses, the Shameer, the characters, writing, 
and the tables. And some say, also the demons; and the 
grave of our legislator Moses ; and the nm of our father 
Abraham : and also the prepared instrrment of a tongs. 
Sevens things are to be met with in a riide person, and se- 
. ven in a wise man. The wise man will not speak before one 
who exceeds him in wisdom and years; nor will he interupt 
bis neighbour in his discourse: nather is he in haste to 
answer. He enquireth according fo the subject, and ans- 
wereth according to the constitut:on ; and will answer the 
first proposition first; and the latter last; and what he 
hath not heard, he will acknowledge he hath not heard; and 
confesseth the truth ; and tAe reverse of these are to be 
met with in a rude person. Seven store of punishment are 
brought on the world for seven important sins: for when a 
'part of the people given tithes, and the other doth not, a 
scarcity and dearth ensues, so that some are filled, and 
others suffer hunger : but when the whole agree not to give 
tithes, a famine of dearth and confusion ensues. If they 
oifer not up the cake, a confusion and fire ensues. Pesti- 
lence Cometh into the world, for the commission of sins said 
to be punishable with death in the law, but which are not

cognizable hj our judges ; and for not observing the law 
concerning the fruits of the seventh year. The sword en- 
tereth the world on account of the delay of justice, and the 
perversion thereof; and on account of those who explain 
the law contrary to the true sense thereof. Evil devouring 
beasts come into the world on account of false swearing, 
and the profanation of God's name. Captivity entereth the 
world on account of idolatry, whoredom, bloodshed, and 
not suffering the land to rest en the sabbatical year. At 
four seasons the pestilence is prevalent : in the fourth year, 
the seventh, and the end of tho seventh, and the end of the 
feast of tabernacles in every year. In the fourth year, for 
not giving the poor's tithe of the third year; in the seventh, 
for withholding the poor's tithe of the sixth year; and at 
the end of the seventh, on account of the fruits of the se- 
venth year ; and at the end of the feast of tabernacles yearly, 
on account of robbing the poor of the gifts due tho them. 
Four qualities are to be met with among mankind; he who 
saith, that which is mine is mine, and that which is thine 
is thine, is a passable custom. And some say, this was the 
custom of Sodem. He who saith, what is thine is mine, 
and what is mine is thine, is the behavior of the vulgar. 
He who saitli, what is mine is thine, and what is thine is 
also thine, is the custom of the pious. He who saith, what 
is mine is mine, and what is thine is mine also, is tlie custom 
of the wicked. There are four different forms in the passions 
of mankind. He who is easily provoked, and easily paci- 
fied, loses more than he gains; he whom it is difficult to 
provoke, and difficult to pacify, gains more than he loses : 
he whom it is difficult to provoke, and easy to pacify, is

pious: but he who is easily provoked, and with difficulty 
pacified , acts wickedly. There are four qualities perceiv- 
able in disciples, viz: he who is quick to apprehend, and 
quick to forget , loses more than he gains ; he who with 
difficulty apprehends, and with difficulty forgets gains more 
tlian he loses : he who apprehends quickly, and with diffi- 
culty forgets , hath an good portion : he who with difficulty 
apprehends, and quickly forgets hath an evil portion. There 
are four qualities perceivable in those who bestow charity. 
He who is willing to give, but doth not wish that others 
should give, hath an envious eye towards others ; he who 
likes to see others give, but will not give, hath an evil eye 
towards himself; he who is willing to give, and that others 
should also give, acts piously ; he who will not give, and 
likes not that others should give, acts wickedly. Four 
qualities are perceivable in those who go to college. He 
who goeth, but doth not study, can but claim the reward 
of going ; he who studieth and doth not go, is entitled to 
the reward of action ; he who goeth, and studieth, is pious ; 
he who neither goeth, nor studieth, is a wicked man. There 
are four qualities to be met with, in those who attend to 
hear the instruction of the sages : viz, those who act as a 
sponge, a funnel, a strainer, and a sieve : as a sponge, which 
sucketh all up ; as a funnel, which receiveth at one end, 
and dischargeth at the other; as a strainer, which letteth 
the wine pass, but retaineth the lees ; and as a sieve, which 
dischargeth the bran, but retaineth the fine flour. Every 
affection that depents on some sensual worldly cause, if

that cause ceaseth, the affection ceaseth ; but that which 
doth not depent on such cause, will never cease. Where 
do we meet with an affection dependent on a sensual cause 1 
such was the love of Ammon to Tamar ; but that -which 
doth not depend on such a cause, was the love of David and 
Jonathan. Every dispute that is instituted for God's sake, 
will in the end be established ; but that which is not for 
God's sake, will not be established. What may be con- 
sidered as a dispute for God's soke? Such as the disputes 
of Hillel and Shamai ; but which is not for God's sake, was 
the descension of Korah and his assembly. He who justi- 
fieth the public, no sin will be caused throu^^h his means ; 
and whosoever causeth the public to sin, is not suffered to 
repent. Moses acted meritoriously, and caused the public 
to obtain merit; the merit of the public was attributed to 
him : as is said, he executed the justice of the Lord, and 
his judgement with Israel. Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, 
sinned , and caused Israel to sin : the sin of the public was 
attributed to him, as is said , because of the sins of Jero- 
boam which he sinned, and which he made Israel sin. He 
who possesseth those three virtues, is of the disciples of our 
father Abraham ; and he who is possessed of the three op- 
posites, is of the disciples of the wicked Behiam. The dis- 
ciples of our father Abraham, possess a benevolent eye, a 
humility of spirit; and an humble contented mind. The dis- 
ciples of Belaam have and evil eye, a haughty spirit, and 
a narrow mind. What is the difference between the dis- 
ciples of our father Abraham , and the disciples of the

wicked Balaam? The disciples of our father Abraham eat 
the fruit of their good works in this world, and inherit the 
future one : for it is said, that I may cause those that love 
me, to inherit substance; and I will fill their treasures. 
But the disciples of the wicked Balaam inherit Gehinnam, 
and the infernal regions; as is said, but thou, God, shalt 
bring them down into the pit of destruction: bloody and 
deceitful men shall not life out half their days, but I will 
trust in thee. Judah Ben Tamai said, be bold as a leo- 
pard, light as an eagle, swift as' a roe, ond strong as a 
lion, to do the will of thy Father, who is in heaven. He 
used to say, the impudent are for Gehinnam, and the mo- 
dest for paradise. May it be acceptable in thy presence, 
Lord, our God ! and the God of our fathers, that the 
holy temple may speedily be rebuilt in our days, and let 
our portion be in thy law. He also said, at five years of age, 
a child should study the bible; at ten the mishna; at thir- 
teen, to observe the precepts ; at fifteen to study the gemara; 
at eighteen to enter into wedlock; at twenty to persue the 
study of the law, and the observance of the precepts; at 
thirty he is arrived at full strength; at forty, he is arrived 
at understanding: at fifty, to give counsel; at sixty, he is 
accounted aged; at seventy, he is called grey; at eighty, 
he may be accounted strong; at ninety, only fit to dis- 
course of the law ; at a hundred, as if already dead, and 
forgotten from the world. Ben Bag Bag said, ponder, and 
ponder again on the law; for all things are contained there- 
in; contemplate it perpetually, and depard not therefrom; 
for there is no quality preferable to it. Ben Hea Hea said, 
according to the affliction which thou wilt endure, so shall 
be thy recompence.

CHAPTER VI. 

' The sages learned in the language of the mishna: blessed 
be he who made choice of them, and their learning. Rabbi 
Myer said, he who is engaged in the study of the law for 
its own sake, meriteth many things ; and not only that, but 
the whole world is under the greatest obligation to him. He 
is called a dear friend : dear to God, and dear to mankind ; 
he rejoiceth God, and rejoiceth his creatures; it clotheth 
him with meekness, and the fear of God; and directeth him 
to become just, pious, righteous^ and faithful; it removeth 
him from sin, and bringeth him near to merit ; and the world 
is benefited by his counsel, sound wisdom, understand- 
ing, and strength ; as is said, counsel is mine, and sound 
wisdom; I am understanding, I have strength. It also 
bestoweth on him empire, dominion and ratiocination ; the 
hidden secrets of the law are revealed to him ; and he shall 
be as an increasing fountain, and a never-failing river; and 
it will cause him to be modest, slow the anger, and ready 
to pardon an injury done to him; thus will it magnify and 
exalt him above all things. Rabbi Joshua Ben Levi said, 
every day, a Bat-kol proceedeth from mount Horeb, which 
proclaimeth, and said, woe be to those who contemn the 
law, for whoever is not engaged in the study of the law, 
may be considered as under excommunication : as is said, 
as a jewel of gold in a swine's snout, so is a fair woman 
who is without discretion. And it is said, and the tables 
were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of 
4 (2)

God, graven upon the tables. Read not graven; but free- 
dom : for none are accounted free, but those engaged in the 
study of the law ; and whoever is engaged in the study of 
the law, is exalted : as mentioned , and from Mattanah to 
Nachliel, &c. He who learneth from his associate one 
chapter, sentence, verse, or expression, ought to behave 
towards him with respect; for thus we find by David, king 
of Israel , who having learned only two things from Ahitho- 
pel, called him his teacher, preceptor and friend; as is 
said , but it was thou , a man , mine equal , my ^uide, and 
my friend. Hence it may be deduced, that if David king 
of Israel, who learned but two things from Ahithopel, called 
him his rabbi, preceptor, and friend, how much more ought 
he who learneth from his fellow, a single chapter, sentence 
verse, or expression, to shew him the utmost respect? But 
this honor is nought, but the knowledge of the law; as is 
said, the wise shall inherit glory : and the perfect shall in- 
herit the good, but nothing is really good, but the law ; as 
is said, for I give you good doctrine, forsake you not my 
law. Thus is the law to be observed ; thou shalt eat bread 
and salt, and water by measure shalt thou drink : on the 
earth shalt thou sleep, and a life of trouble shalt thou live : 
and sbalt labor in the study of the law. If thou actest 
thus, thou shalt be happy, and it shall be well with thee ; 
thou shalt be happy in this world, and it shall be well wit'i 
thee in the future one. Seek not grandeur to thyself, neither 
covet more honor than thy learning meriteth; perform the 
precepts, and crave not after the tables of kings : for thy

table is greater than their's, and thj'' crown is greater than 
their crown and the master who employeth thee, is faithful 
to pay thee reward of thy labor. The law is more ex- 
cellent than the priesthood and royalty: for royalty is ac- 
quired by thirty properties, and the priesthood by twenty- 
four ; but the law is acquired by forty-eight things, and 
these are they, viz, with study, attention, eloquence, an un- 
derstanding heart, an intelligent heart; with dread and meek- 
ness, fear and joy ; with attendance on the sages, the acu- 
teness of associates, and disputations of the disciples; 
with sedateness, the study of the bible, and the mishna; 
in purity, in taking little sleep, in using little discourse, 
in being little engaged in traflSc, in taking little sport in 
enjoying little delight, and little worldly manners 5 in being

creaseth his preceptor's knowled2;e, and is attentive to his 
instruction ; and reporteth everj thing in the name of the 
person who predicated it : hence it is inferred, that whoever 
reports any thing in the name of the person who affirmed it, 
procureth redemption for the world; as is said, and Esther 
certified the king thereof in Mordecai's name. Great is the 
law, which bestoweth live on the observers thereof, both in 
this world and in the future one ; as is said, for thej are 
life unto those who find them, and health to all their flesh. 
And it is said, it shall be health to thy navel, and marrow 
to thy bones. And it is said, it is a tree of life to those 
who lay hold on it, and the supporters thereof are happy. 
And it is said, for they shall be an ornament of grace to 
thine head, and chains about thy neck. And it is said, she 
shall give an ornament of grace to thine head : a crown of 
glory shall she deliver to thee. And it is said, length of 
days is in its right hand, and in its left are riches and 
honor. And it is said, for length of days and long life, 
and peace shall they add to thee. Rabbi Simeon Ben 
Judah in the name of Rabbi Simeon Ben Jochai, said, 
beauty, strength, riches, honor, wisdom, age, hoariness, 
and many children, are suitable to the righteous, and 
agreeable to the world : as is said, the hoary head is a 
crown of glory, if it be found in the way of righteousness. 
And it is said, children's children are the crown of old men ; 
and the glory of children is the wisdom of their fathers. 
And it is said, the glory of young men is t- eir strength 
and the beauty of old men is the grey head. And it is said,

and the moon shall be confounded, and the sun shall be 
ashamed ; for the Lord of Hosts shall reign on mount Zion, 
and in Jerusalem; and before his ancients shall be glory. 
Rabbi Simeon Ben Menasya said, those seven qualities 
which the sages enumerated as proper for the righteous, 

were all accomplished in the person of the Rabbi and his 
children. Rabbi Jose Ben Kishma said, I was once travel- 
ling on the road, and met a certain person, who saluted me 
with peace, and I returned his salutation ; he then said 
unto me. Rabbi, whence art thou? I answered him, from 
a great city, abounding in sages and scribes : said he to me, 
if thou art willing to dwell with us in our city, then will I 
give thee a thousand thousand golden deenars: to this I 
answered him, if thou wouldest give me all the silver and 
gold in the universe, I would not dwell bat in a place where 
the law is studied: because, at the time of man's departure 
from this world, he is not accompanied either with silver or 
gold, but with the law, and good deeds only : as is said, 
when thou goest, it shall lead thee ; when thou sleepest, it 
shall keep thee : and when thou awakest, it shall talk with 
thee : when thou goest, it shall lead thee : that is, in this 
world : when thou sleepest, it shall watch over thee in the 
grave : and when thou awakest, it shall talk with thee in 
the future w^orld. And thus is written in the book of 
Psalms, by the hand of David, king of Israel. The law of 
thy mouth is better to me than thousands of gold and silver. 
And it is said, the silver is mine, and the gold is mine ; 
said the Lord of Hosts. Five possessions hath the holy

blessed God purchased in his world : and these are they, 
viz. the law is one pOvSsession : heaven and earth another; 
Abraham another : Israel another : and the holy temple 
another. Now, whence is it to be proved that the law is 
one possession? Because it is written, the Lord possessed me 
in the beginning of his way, before his works of old. And 
whence is it proved that heaven and earth is another pos- 
session 1 Because it is said , thus said the Lord : the hea- 
vens are my throne : and the earth is my footsool ; where 
is the house that ye can build for me ? and where is the 
place of my rest? And it is said, how manifold are thy works, 
O Lord ! in wisdom hast thou made them all : the earth is 
full of thy possessions. Whence is it proved , that Abra- 
ham is one possession? Because it is written, and he bles* 
sed him, and said, blessed be Abraham of the most high 
God, possessor of heaven and earth. Whence is it proved 
that Israel is one possession? Because it is written, until thy 
people pass over, O Lord , till the people pass over, which 
thou hast purchased. And it is said, but the saints that 
are in the earth, and to the excellent in whom is all my de- 
light. Whence can it be proved, that the holy temple is 
one possession? Because it is said, the sanctuary, Lord ! 
which thy hands have established, And it is said, and he 
brought them to the border of his sanctuary, even to this 
mountain which his right hand hath purchased. Every 
thing which God created, he created but for his glory: as is 
said, every one that is called by my name i for I have created 
him for m.y glory, I have foimed him ; yea, I have made him.

A Psalm of David, — Blessed be the Lord, \vho is my 
strength; who teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to 
fight In him is my goodness and my fortress, my high tower, 
and deliverer ; my shield in whom I trust ; who subdueth my 
people unto me. Lord! what is man, that thou takest 
knowledge of him? or the son of man, that thou makest account 
of him? Man is like to vanity; his days like a shadow that 
passeth away. Bow thy heavens, Lord ! and come dow^n ; 
touch the mountains, and they shall smoke. Cast forth light- 
ning, and scatter them ; shoot thine arrows, and destroy them. 
Send thine hand from above ; rid me, and deliver me out of 
great waters, from the hands of strange children ; whose mouth 
speaketh vanity, and whose right hand is a power of falsehood. 
Unto thee, God ! will I sing a new song; upon the psaltery, 
and the ten -stringed instrument will 1 sing praises unto 
thee. For it is he who giveth salvation to kings, who deli- 
vered his servant David from the destructive sword. Rid me, 
and deliver me from the hand of strangers; whose mouth 
speaketh vanity, and whose right hand is a power of false- 
hood. But may our sons be as plants growing up in all the 
vigour of youth ; and our daughters as the beauteous pil- 
lars that ornament a palace. May our storehouses be full, 
affording all manner of store ; and our sheep bring forth 
thousands, and ten thousands in our streets ; mjay our oxen 
be strong to labour ; may there be neither ruin, migration, 
nor complaint in our territories. Happy the people who are 
thus ! Happy the people whose God is the Lord !

hearken unto Balaam; but the Lord thy God turned the 
curse into a blessing unto thee, because the Lord thy God 
loved thee. Then shall the virgin rejoice in the dance, and 
the young men and old together; for I will change their 
mourning into joy; I will also comfort them, and cheer 
them after their surrow.) 

I create the fruit of the lips: peace, peace to him that 
is afar off, and to him that is near, saith the Lord : and I 
will heal him. Then the spirit came upon Amassai, who 
was chief of the captains, and he said, thine are we David, 
and on thy side thoa son of Jesse : peace, peace be to thee, 
and peace tho those that help thee; for thy God helpeth 
thee. Then David received them, and made them captains 
of the band. And thus shall ye say unto him who liveth in 
prosperity, peace be to thee, and peace to thy house, and 
peace to all that thou hast. Blessed is the man that trust- 
eth in the Lord, and whose hope is the Lord. The Lord 
will give strength unto his people: the Lord will bless his 
people with peace. 

Rabbi Johanan said, wherever ye meet with the magnifi-

with humility: this rule is written in the law, repeated in 
the prophets^ and a third in time the hagiographa.

73 SREVICE FOR THE CONCLUSION OF THE SABBATH 

In the law it is written, ^Tor the Lord your God is God 
of gods, and Lord, of lords, a great God, mighty and ter- 
rible, who regardeth not persons, nor taketh a bribe." And 
immediately after, it is written, "he doeth justice for the 
fatherless and the widow, and loveth the stranger, bestow- 
ng on him food and raiment." It is also repeated in the 
prophets, as is it written, "for thus saith the high and lofty 
One, who inhabiteth eternity, and whose name is Holy; 
the high and holy place will inhabit; and with the contrite 
and humble of spirit; to revive the spirit of the humble; 
and to animate the heart of the contrite." It is a third 
time repeated in the hagiographa, at it is written, "sing 
unto God, chaunt hymns to his name; extol him who rideth 
upon the heavens; praise him by his name Jah, and rejoice 
before him. And immediately after it is written, "a Fa- 
ther of the fatherless, and a Judge of the widows, is God in 
his holy habitation." May the Lord our God be with us, 
as he was with our fathers! may he not forsake us, nor 
cast us oflf But ye who cleaved unto the Lord your God, 
are all of ye alive at this day. Therefore the Lord shall 
console Zion; ho shall console all her desolations, and he 
shall make her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like 
the garden of the Lord; joy and gladness shall be found in 
her, thanksgiving, and the voice of melody. The Lord was 
pleased for his righteousness sake, to magnify the law and 
adorn it.

75 SERYICE FOR THE CONCLUSION OF THE SABBATH 

A Song of Degrees. — Blessed is eyery one who feareth 
the Lord: who walketh in his ways. For thou shalt eat the 
labor of thy hands : then happy shalt thou be, and it shall 
be well with thee. Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine en- 
circling thine house : thy children like olive plants round 
thy table. Behold ! thus shall the man be blessed who fear- 
eth the Lord. The Lord shall bless thee from Zion ; and 
thou shalt see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy 
life : yea, thou shalt see thy children's children, and peace 
on Israel. 

Behold, God is my salvation: I will trust, and will not 
be afraid; for the Lord Jah is my strength and my song; 
he is also become my salvation. And ye shall draw w^ater 
with joy from the fountains of salvation. Salvation is the 
Lord's; may thy blessing be on thy people. Selah. The 
Lord of Hosts is with us , the God of Jacob is our refuge. 
Selah. The Jews had delight and joy, gladness and honor. 
Thus may it also be unto us. I will take the cup of salva- 
tion, and call upon the name of the Lord. 

Blessed art thou, O Lord, our God! King of the Universe; 
who createth the fruit of the vine. 

Blessed art thou, Lord, our God ! King of the Universe, 
who createth divers species of spice. 

Blessed art thou, Lord, our God ! King of the Universe, 
who cerateth the light of the fire. 

Blessed art thou, O Lord, our God ! King of the Universe,

7T SERVICE FOR THE CONCLUSION OF THE SABBATH 

who hath made a distinction between things sacred and 
profane; between ligth and darkness; between Israel and 
other nations : between the seventh day and the six days of 
labor. Blessed art thou, O Lord, who hath made a distinction 
between things sacred and profane. 

May he who maketh a distinction between things sacred 
and profane, pardon our sins, and multiply our seed as the 
satid, and the stars in the night. The day is past like the 
shadow of a palm tree ; I will call on God who pefecteth all 
things for me, for the day that the watchman said, the 
morning cometh and also the night. The righteousness is 
like mount Tabor. pardon and pass by my transgression, 
as yesterday that is past and as a watch in the night. The 
season of my oifering is over! O who will procure me rest? 
I am wearied of sighing and praying all the night. O hear 
my voice and cast it not away; open the exalted gate for 
me, for my head is filled with dew, and my locks with drops 
of the night. be entreated, thou who art tremendous and 
terrible, when 1 cry for thy granting redemption, in the twi- 
light, in the evening of the day ; in the black night. I have 
called on thee, O save me; and show me the path of life, 
for I dread thou wilt cut me off with pining sickness, in the 
course of the day. O purify the pollution of my works, lest 
those who revile me say, where is the God who is my Crea- 
tor, who inspireth the songs of the night? We are all in thy 
hand, as the clay in the potter's ; pardon therefore our sins, 
both trivial and heavy; and from day unto day, and night 
Unto night will we utter praise. May he who maketh, &c.

THE H A L L E L. 

Blessed art thou, O Lord, our God ; King of the Universe 
^vho hath sanctified us with thy conamandmnets, and corn- 
commanded us to read the Hallel. 

Praise the Lord. Praise, ye servants of the Lord, 
praise the name of the Lord. IMessed be the name of the 
Lord, from henceforth and for evermore. From the rising 
of the sun unto the going down thereof, the Lord's name is 
praised. High above all nations is the Lord, and his glory 
above the heavens. Who is like unto the Lord our God, who 
dwelleth on high? Who condescendeth to view the things 
transacted in heaven and on earth. He raiseth the poor 
from the dust, and lifteth the needy from the dunghill; that 
he may set them wkh princes, even with the princes of his 
people. He maketh the barren woman to dwell in the midst 
of her household, and to be the joyful mother of children. 
Hallelujah. 

When Israel went forth from Egj^pt, and the house of 
Jacob from a people of etrange language; Judah became his 
sanctuary, and Israel his dominion. The sea beheld, and 
fled; Jordan was driven back. The mountains skipped 
like rams, and the hills like lambs. What ailed thee, O sea, 
that thou didst flee? thou, Jordan, that thou was driven 
backl Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams; and ye 
hills, like lambs'? It was from the of presence the Lord that 
the earth shrunk back! from tlie presence of the God of Ja- 
cob who turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into 
a fountain of waters. 

Not for our sake, Lord! not for our sake, but unto thy

name give glory, for thy mercy and truth's sake. Where- 
fore should the nations say, where now is their God. But 
our God is in the heavens, and hath made whatsoever he 
pleased. Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men's 
hands. Mouths have they, but speak not ; eyes have they, 
but see not. They have ears, but hear not; nostrils have 
they, but smell not. They have hands, but feel not; feet 
have they, but walk not; neither is utterance in their throat. 
Those who make them shall become like them , so shall all 
those Avho trust in them. Israel, trust thou in the Lord, 
he is thy help and shield. house of Aaron, trust in the 
Lord, he is your help and shield. Ye ^vho fear the Lord, 
trust in the Lord; he is your help and shield. 

The Lord hath ever been mindful of us, he will bless us, 
ho will bless the house of Israel, he will bless the house of 
Aaron. He will bless those that fear the Lord, both small 
and great. May the Lord increase you more and more, 
you and your children. Ye are blessed of the Lord, who 
made heavens and earth. The heavens ere the heavens of 
the Lord; but the earth hath he given to the children of 
men. The dead praise not the Lord ; nor they w^ho descend 
into the silent grave. But we will bless the Lord, from 
henceforth, and for ever. Hallelujah, 

O how I love the Lord ! for he hath graciously heard my 

voice, and my supplications. For he hath inclined his ear 

unto me, therefore wdll I call upon him whilst I live. The 

stru2S:les of death compassed me, and the pangs of the grave

seized me; I was entangled in trouble and sorrow. I then, 
called upon the name of the Lord ; O Lord ! I beseech thee, 
deliver my soul. The Lord is gracious and righteous; yea, 
our God is merciful. The Lord preserveth the simple; I was 
brought low, and he s^ved me. Return unto thy rest, O my 
soul; for the Lord hath dealt bountifully with thee. For 
thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from 
tears, and my feet from falling. I yet w^ill walk before the 
Lord in the land of the living. I firmly believed, and there- 
fore have I spoken with confidence, although I was greatly 
afilicted. In my haste I said, all men are liars. 

What shall I render unto the Lord for all his benefits to- 
wards me? I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon 
the name of the Lord. I will pay my vows unto the Lord 
now in the presence of all his people. Grievous in the sight 
of the Lord is the death of his pious servants, Lord ! tru- 
ly I am thy servant; I am thy servant, the son of thine 
handmaid, thou hast loosed my bonds. Unto thee will I ofier 
a sacrifice of thanksgiving; I will also call on the name of 
the Lord. I will pay my vows unto the Lord, now in the 
presence of all is people. In the courts of the Lord's house, 
in the mids of thee, Jerusalem. Hallelujah. 

Praise the Lord all ye nations : praise him all ye people. 
For great is his merciful kindness towards us ; and the truth 
of the Lord endureth for ever. Hallelujah ! 

give thanks unto the Lord, for he is good, for his mercy 
endureth for ever. 

Let Israel now say, that his mercy endureth for ever. 

Let the house of Aaron now say, that his mercy endureth 
for ever. 

Let those that fear the Lord now say, that his mercy en- 
dureth for ever.

85 THE HALLEL. 

In distress I called on the Lord, and the Lord answered 
me with enlargement. As the Lord is with me, I will not 
fear; what can man do unto me? The Lord is with me, and 
those who help me; I therefore shall see my desire on those 
who hate me. It is better to trust in the Lord, than to rely 
on man. It is better to trust in the Lord, than to rely on 
princes. All nations compassed me about, but in the name 
of the Lord will I cut them off. They surrounded me, yea, 
they compassed me about, but in the name of the Lord will 
I cut them off. They compassed me about like bees, they 
are quenched as the fire of thorns : for in the name of the 
Lord will I cut them off. Thou hast thrust sore at me, that 
I might fall, but the Lord supported me. The Lord is my 
strength and song, and he is become my salvation. The 
voice of song and salvation is in the tabernacles of the right* 
eous; the right hand of the Lord hath done valiantly. I 
shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the Lord, 
He hath indeed chastised me, but he hath not given me over 
unto death. Open the gates of righteousness for me, that I 
may enter through them, to prai&e the Lord. This is the 
gate of the Lord into which the righteous shall enter. I will 
praise thee, for thou hast answered me, and art become my 
salvation. I will ^ Sfc, The stone which the builders rejected, 
is become the corner head-stone. The stone^ &c. This is 
from the Lord ; it is marveflous in our eyes. This is from^ 
&c. This is the day which the Lord hath appointed, we 
will rejoice, and be glad thereon. ThiSy &c. 

O Lord ! save us now, we beseech thee,

O Lord ! send now prosperity, we beseech thee

will we perform the offerings enjoined us ; even the conti- 
nual burnt-offerings, according to their order, and the ad- 
ditional offerings of this day the new moon will we also 
prepare and offer before thee in love, as thou was pleased 
to command, and as thou hast written in thy law concerning 
us, by the hands of thy servant Moses, who received it from 
thy glorious mouth. 

At it is said, and in the beginning of your months, ye 
shall offer a burnt-offering unto the Lord ; two young bulls, 
and one ram, seven lambs of the first year without blemish. 
And the meat-offerings, and the drink-offerings thereof, as 
there expressed, three tenth deals for a bull, and two tenth 
deals for a ram, and one tenth deal for a lamb, and the wine 
according to its libation ; also a kid for an atonement, and 
the two continual offerings, according to their instituton. 

Our God, and the God of our fathers, renew this month 
for us, for good, and for a blessing, joy and gladness; sal- 
vation, and comfort; maintenance, and sustenance; life, 
and peace; pardon of sin, and forgiveness of iniquity. (And 
for the atonement of transgression.) For thou hast chosen 
thy people Israel above all nations, and hast appointed them 
to observe the statutes of the beginning of the months. 
Blessed art thou, Lord! who sanctifieth Israel, and the 
beginning of the months. 

Graciously accept, O Lord! our God! thy people Israel, 
and have regard uuto their prayers. Restore the service to 
the inner part of thine house : and accept of the burnt-offer-

And therefore extend thy fear, O Lord, our God ! over all 
thy works, and thy dread over all thou hast created : that 
all thy works may fear thee, and all creatures bow down be- 
fore thee ; so that they may all form one band, to perform 
thy will with an upright heart; and be all convinced, as we 
are, Lord, our God ! that dominion appertaineth unto 
thee, that strength is in thy hand, might in thy right hand, 
and that thy name is tremendous over all thou hast created. 

And therefore, Lord ! grant honor unto thy people ; 
applause unto those who fear thee ; a pleasing hope unto 
those who seek thee ; and confidence unto those who wait 
for thee : joy unto thy land, gladness unto thy city, a revival 
of the kingdom of thy servant David, and an ordination of 
renewed splendor to the son of Jesse thine anointed, speedily 
in our days. 

And then the righteous will see it, and rejoice; the up- 
right be glad, and the saints exalt in song, but iniquity will 
be dumb, and all manner of wickedness vanish as smoke; 
when thou shalt remove the dominion of wickedness from 
the earth. 

Then, Lord ! thou alone shalt reign over all thy works 
in mount Zion, the residence of thy glory; and in Jerusalem, 
the city of thy sanctuary ; as it is written in the holy w^ord, 
the Lord reigneth for ever, even thy God, Zion ! from 
generation to generation. Hallelujah. 

Thou art holy, and thy name is tremendous ; and besides 
thee there is no God , and it is written, and the Lord of Hosts 
shall be axal ted in judgment; and the holy God shall be

Thou selected us from all other people, thou didst love

nations, and thou sanctified us with thy commandments; and 
brought us near, O our King ! unto thy service ! and by thy 
great and holy name thou called unto us. 

And thou insructed us to know, Lord, our God ! thy 
righteous judgments ; and through them thou taught us to 
do the statutes of thy pleasure. And thou granted unto us, 
O Lord, our God! thy righteous judgement, and the law of 
truth; with good commandments and statutes. Thou also 
caused us to possess joyful seasons and holy festivals, with 
feasts of free-will; and to inherit the holy sabbath, and 
honorable festivals, with the feast of appearance of every 
male. And thou hast made us a division, Lord, our God ! 
between the holy and the profane ; between light and dark- 
ness; between Israel and the nations; between the seventh 
day and the six days of work ; between the sanctified sab- 
bath to the sanctified holy days thou separated ; and the 
seventh day from the six days of work thou sanctified; and 
thou separated and sanctified thy people Israel with holiness. 

And with love, hast thou given us, Lord, our God ! {on

being the day of sounding the trumpet, {on the sabbath sny^

ADDITIONAL SERVICE 

It IS incumbent on us to praise the sovereign Lord of all 
the Universe ; to ascribe greatness unto him, who formed 
the world in the beginning : who hath not made us like those 
nations, nor situated us like those families of the earth, nor 
allotted our portion with the multitude. For we reverently 
kneel, bow, aad prostrate, before the Supreme King of kings, 
holy and blessed is he ! who hath extended the heavens, and 
laid the foundation of the earth ; the residence of whose 
glory is in the heavens above, and his potent and divine pre- 
sence in the highest emporium. He is our God, and there 
is no other: he is truly our King, and besides him there is 
no other; as it is written in his law, know therefore this 
day, and consider it in thine heart, that the the Lord, he is 
God ! in heaven above, and upon the earth beneath ; there is 
none else. 

We therefore hope in thee, Lord; our God ! speedily to 
behold thy glorious power ; to remove the abomination from 
the earth, and cause the idols to be utterly destroyed; that 
the Universe may be established under the sole dominion of 
the Allmighty, so that all flesh may invoke thy name, all 
the wicked turn unto thee, and all the inhabitants of the 
world know and acknowledge, that unto thee every knee shall 
bend, and every tongue swear. Before thee, Lord, our 
God ! shall they kneel and fall prostrate, and to thy glo- 
rious name shall they ascribe honor ; and all of them shall 
willingly submit to the yoke of thy dominion. Deign thou,

And by the hands of thy servants, the prophets, it is written,

my God, be pleased to guard my tongue from evil, and

perfect repentance, as thou didst the burnt- offerings and

of thy word which thou hast spoken ; for there is no end to 
the burnt-offerings of our sins, nor any number to the sweet 
savour of our trespasses ; thou knowest also, that our end is 
to be food for the worm and insect; therefore hast thou

What is our salvation? What is our power? What is our

heroes as nothing before thee? and men of fame, as if they 
had not existed ; wise man as if they were without knowledge;

delight in the destruction of the world ; as it is said, seek 
ye the Lord while he may be found ; call ye upon him while 
he is near at hand. And it is said, let the wicked forsake 
his way, and the iniquitous man his thoughts ; and let him 
return unto the Lord, for he will receive him with compas- 
sion ; and unto our God, for he aboundeth in forgiveness. 
And thou, God of forgiveness, art gracious and merciful, 
long-suffering, and abundant in mercy; diffusing good abun- 
dantly. Thou dost also delight in the repentance of the 
wicked; and hast no pleasure in their death; as it is said, 
say unto them, as I live said the Lord God, I have no pleasure 
in the death of the wicked ; but that the wicked turn from 
his evil way, and live. Turn ye, turn ye from your evil 
ways : wherefore will ye die, house of Israel? And it is 
said, have I any pleasure in the death of the wicked 1 said 
the Lord God, but rather that he turn from his evil ways, 
and live. And it is said, for I have no pleasure in the death of 
him thatdieth, said the Lord God, therefore turn ye, and live. 
For thou art the pardoner of Israel, and who grantest remis- 
sion of sins unto the tribes in Jeshurun, and besides thee 
there is none to whom we appeal for pardon and forgiveness.

197 ORDER OF HANUCKAH 

Blessed art thou, Lord, our God ! King of the Universe, 

Tvho hath preserved us alive, and brought us to enjoy this 
season. 

These lights we light to praise thee, for the miracles, won- 
ders, salvations, and victories, which thou didst perform for 
our fathers in those days, and in this season, by the hands 
of thy holy priests. Wherefore, by command, these lights 
are holy all the eight days of the dedication ; neither are we 
permitted to make any other use of them, save to view them, 
that we msij return thanks to thy name, for thy miracles, 
wonderful w^orks, and salvation. 

O thou my Stronghold, Rock of my salvation ! it is plea- 
sant to sing praise unto thee ; re-establish thy house of prayer 
and there will we offer thanksgiving sacrifices, at the time 
when w^e prepare our offering for the deliverance from the 
vengeful foe, and then will we accomplish with song and 
psalm the dedication of the altar. With evils was my soul 
sated, in affliction was my strength exhausted, and with hard 
labor they embittered my days, when we were slaves to the 
rulers of Egypt's realm; but he, in whose hand is greatness, 
led forth the people, his peculiar treasure, whilst Pharoh's 
host, and all his seed sunk like a stone in the deep. He 
brought me then to his holy dwelling ; but there too I had 
no. rest, and the taskmaster came and led me unto exil, be- 
cause I had worshipped false gods, and mixed the cup of 
confusion ; and nearly had I altogether perished ; but at the 
end of Babel's captivity, there arose Zerubabel, and at the 
end of seventy years I was again redeemed. Again sought 
the Agagite, Hamdatha's son, to cut down the high towering 
pine, but it became to him a snare, and his own arrogance 
led him captive; the- head of the Benj.amite didst thou raise 
up high, but the enemy's naqie didst thou blot out, and his

201 THE SERVICE FOR PURIM 

the devices of the crafty : when that wicked man rose up 
against us, even that presumptuous branch of the seed of 
Amalek. He was proud of his riches, and dug a pit for 
himself; for his greatness caught him in a snare. He 
thoucrht in his mind to entrap, but was entrapped ; he sought 
to destroy, but was quickly destroyet. Haman avowed the 
enmity of his ancestors, and awakened the hatred of his 
brethren to the children : and did not remember the mercy 
of Saul, for by his compassion on Agag, the enemy was 
born. The wicked thought to cut off righteous ; but the 
impure was taken by the hands of the undefiled. Mercy 
prevailed over the father's error, but the wicked added sin 
to his sins. In his heart he hid his crafty imachinations, 
and sold himself to work evil. He put forth his hand against 
God's sanctified people, and gave his silver to cut ofi* their 
memorial. When Mordecai saw that wrath was gone forth, 
and the decress of Haman were given in Shushan, he clothed 
himself with sackcloth, and attired himself with mourning: 
decreed a fast, and sat on ashes. Who will rise up to make 
atonement for our errors, and procure pardon for the sin and 
iniquity of our fathers'? A flower bloomed from the palm, 
the same was Hadassah, who rose up to awaken those who 
slept. Her chamberlains hastened Haman, to cause him to 
drink the dragon's poisoned wine. He rose up with his 
riches, and fell in his wickedness ; he made a gallows, and 
was himself hung thereon. All the inhabitants of the world 
opened their mouth, for the lot of Haman was turned to our 
festival of Purim. The righteous was delivered from the 
power of the wicked, and the enemy was given into instead 
of his soul. They took upon them to keep Purim, and to 
rejoice thereon yearly. Thou didst see the prayer of Mor- 
decai and Esther : Haman and his sons didst thou cause to 
be hanged on a tree.

Blessed be Mordecai the Jew ; blessed be Esther for my

who feedeth the whole world with his goodness, and with 
grace, kindness and mercy, giveth footh to every creature, 
for his mercy endureth for ever. And as his abundant good-

thou, O Lord ! who giveth food unto all. 

We will give thanks unto thee, O Lord, our God! for 
having caused our ancestors to inherit that desirable, good, 
and ample land ; and because thou hast brought us forth 
from the land of Egypt, and redeemed us from the house of 
bondage; and for thy covenant, which thou hast sealed in 
our flesh ; for the law w^hich thou hast taught us, and for thy 
statutes, which thou hast made known unto us ; and for the 
life, kindness, and mercy, which thou hast graciously be- 
stowed upon us, and for the food, wherewith thou dost feed 
Und sustain us, continually every day and hour.

suffer no trouble, sorrow, or affliction, to affect us on our day 
of rest; and show us, Lord,. our God! the consolation of 
Zion, thy city, and the structure of Jerusalem, thy holy city; 
for thou art the Lord of salvations,and the Lord of consolations.

219 NIGHT PRAYERS 

and with all thy soul, and with all thy might, and these 
words, which I comnuind thee this day, shall be in thine 
heart. And thcu shalt teach them diligently unto thy 
children and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in 
thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when 
thou liest down, and wiien thou risest up. And thou shalt 
bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as 
frontlets between thine eyes. And thou shalt write them 
upon the doorposts of thy house and on thy gates, 

And let the beauty of the Lord, our God, be upon us ; and 
establish thou the work of our hands upon us, yea, the work 
of our hands establish thou it. He whodwellethin the secret 
place of the Most High, shall abide unto the shadow of the 
Almighty. I will say of the Lord, he is my refuge and my 
fortress; my God, in him will I trust. He surely will de- 
liver thee from the fowler's snare, and from the noxious pesrs 
tilence. He will cover thee with his feathers, and under 
his wings shalt thou take refuge : for his truth shall by thy 
shield and buckler, thou shalt not be afraid of the terror of 
the night, nor of the arrow, which flieth by day; of the pes- 
tilence which stalketh in midnight gloom; nor of the de- 
struction that wasteth at noonday. A thousand shall fall 
at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand ; but thou 
shalt remain untouched. Thou shalt only behold it with 
thine eyes, and see the reward of the wicked. Because thou 
hq-st made the Lord, who is my refuge, even the Most High^ 
thy stronghold. No evil shall befall thee, neither shall any 
plague approach thy dwelling;, for he will give his angels 
charge concerning thee, to guard thee in all thy ways. They 
shall bear thee on their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against 
^ stone. On the fierce lion and the asp shalt thou tread i 
the young lion an.d. th,e dragon sh^I.t thou trampel under foot.

my name. He shall call upon me, and I will answer him : 
1 will be Avith him in trouble, I will deliver him, and grant 
him honour. With length of days will I satisfy him, and 
show him my salvation. 

Lord ! how are my adversaries increased ; many are 
those who rise up against me. Many there are who say of 
my soul, there is no help for him from God. Selah. Bat 
thou, O Lord ! art a shield around me; my glory, and the 
exaltation of my head. I cried with my voice unto the Lord, 
and he answered me from his holy mount. Selah. I laid me 
down fearless, and slept : I awoke, for the Lord sustained 
me. I will not fear the hostile multitude who have sur- 
rounded me. Arise, Lord! my God, save me; for thou 
hast smote all mine enemies upon the check bone ; thou hast 
broken the teeth of the wicked. Salvation belongeth unto 
the Lord ! thy blessings be upon thy people for ever. 

Lord, our God ! cause us to lie down in peace, and raise 
us up, O our king ! to a happy life. spread thy pavilion 
of peace over us, and direct us with good counsel from thy 
presence; and save us for the sake of thy name. shield 
us, and remove from us the stroke of the enemy, the pesti- 
lence, sword, famine, and sorrow : and remove the adversary 
from before and behind us, and conceal us under the shadow 
of thy wings; for thou, God! art our guardian and de- 
liverer ; and thou, God ! art a merciful and gracious King. 
O guard us at our going out and coming in, with a happy 
and peaceable life, from henceforth and for evermore. 

Blessed be the Lord by day, and blessed be the Lord by 
night; blessed be the Lord, when we lie down, and blessed 
be the Lord, when we rise up ; for in thy hand ar^ the souls 
of the quick and the dead ; in whose hand also is the soul

thy hand do I deposit my spirit : for thou hast redeemed me, 
O Lord God of truth. Our God*, ^ho art in heaven, pro- 
claim the unity of thy namc^ and establish ihj kingdom per- 
pendualiy, and reign over us for ever and ever. 

May our eyes see it, our heart rejoice, and our soul exalt

i-eigneth, the Lord shall reign for ever and ever. For the

May the angel who redeemed me from all evil, bless the 
J^ouths^ and they shall be called by my name^ and those of 
my ancestors, Abi'aham^ and Isaac ^5 and may they increase 
abundantly in the midst of the earth. And he said, if thou 
wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord, thy God ! and 
wilt do that which is right in his sights and wilt give ear to 
his commandments, and obserVe his statutes, I will not put 
any of those diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon 
the Egypteansj for lam the Lord, who healteth thee. And 
the Lord said unto satan^ the Lord rebuke thee, O satan, 
even the Lordj w^ho hath chosen Jerusalem, rebuke thee; 
is not this a brand plucked out of the fire? Behold, the 
be^, which is Salomoii'sj sixty valiant men surround it, 
selected from the valiant of Israel. They all grasp swords, 
being experth in war; every man hath his sword upon 
his thigh, because of the terrors of the night. The Lord 
bless and preserve tliee; the Lord hiake his face shine 
Upon thee, and bo gracious unto thee; the Lord lift up his 
countenance upon thee, and give thee peace. Behold, 
the Guardian of Israel neither slumbereth nor sleepeth.

O Lord ! for thy salvation. Lord ! for thy salvation do I 
hope. {Three times,) In the name of the Lord God of Israel, 
on my right hand is Michael, and on my left Gabriel; before

A Song of Degrees. — Blessed is every one who feareth 
the Lord: who walketh in his ways. For thou shalt eat the 
labor of thy hands : then happy shalt thou be, and it shall 
be well with thee. Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine en- 
circling thine house : thy children like olive plants round 
thy table. Behold ! thus shall the man be blessed who fear- 
eth the Lord. The Lord shall bless thee from Zion; and 
thou shalt see the good of Jerusalem all the days of thy 
life: yea, thou shalt see thy children's children, and peace 
on Israel. 

Stand in awe and sin not ; commune with your own heart 
upon your bed, and cease from murmurring. Selah.

of all you injustice, and who will again bring you into life 
injustice. Blessed art thou, O Lord, who revivest the dead. 
He is the Rock, whose work is perfect ; for all his ways are 
just. The God of truth, in whom there is no iniquity ; just 
and upright is he. He is the Rock, perfect in every work; 
w^ho can say unto him, what workest thou? He ruleth below 
and above, he slayeth and reviveth, and bringeth to the grave, 
and bringeth up again. He is the Rock, perfect in every deed; 
who can say unto him, what doest thou? thou, who sayest 
and fulfiUest, show us unmerited kindness, and for the sake of 
him, who was bound like a lamb, listen, and do as we ask, 
thou, who art righteous in all thy ways ! perfect Rock ! 
thou long suffering and full of mercy ! have compassion 
and spare, we beseech thee, both the fathers and the children, 
for thinOj O the Lord, art the pardons and mercies. Thou 
art righteous to slay and to revive, thou, in whose hand is 
the custody of all spirits , do not permit our memorial to 
be blotted out, and may thy eyes be open over us in mercy, 
for thine, Lord, art the mercies and pardons. If a man 
attain but one year, or if a thousand years he should live, 
what will it avail him? it would still be as though he had 
not been ; blessed be then the righteous Judge, who slayeth 
and reviveth. Blessed be he, for his judgment is true, and 
every where doth his eye survey, and he repayeth to man 
his recompense and his reward, and all will ever give thanks 
to his name. We know, Lord ! that thy judgment is 
righteous ; thou art righteous, when thou speakest, justified

229 SERVICE FOR THE DEAD 

when thou judgest, and no one can find foult with thy man- 
ner of judging ; for thou art righteous, and thy judgment is 
just. Yea, he is a Judge of truth ; judging in righteous- 
ness and truth ; blessed then be the Judge of truth ; all 
whose judgments are righteousness and truth. The soul of 
every living thing is in thy hand ; with righteousness thy right 
and left hands are filled : have mercy on the remnant of the 
flock of thy pasture, and say to the angel : Stay thy hand. 
"0 thou art great in council, and mighty in deeds, whose 
eyes are open over all the ways of the sons of man, to give to 
each man according to his ways and the fruits of his deeds. 
To show that the Lord is upright, he is my Rock and there 
is no unrighteousness in him. The Lord gave and the Lord 
hath taken; blessed be the name of the Lord. And he being 
merciful forgiveth iniquity, and destroyeth not, yea, he 
frequently turneth his anger away, and awakeneth not all 
his wrath.'' 

May his great name be exalted and sanctified throughout 
the world, for he will in future renew the same, and revive 
the dead, 'Bnd bring them up to everlasting life, and rebuild the 
city of Jerusalem, and restore his temple in the midst there- 
of; he will also destroy the worship of false gods from the 
earth, and restore the worship of Heaven to its place, and 
then will the Holy One, blessed be he, cause his kingdom to 
be established in its power and glory. In your lifetime, and 
in your days, and in the lifetime of all Israel, speedily and 
in a short time, and say ye, Amen. 

And they shall spring up from the city as the grass of the 
earth. Others say, Remember, that we are but dust.
